Aligned With Purpose
40 Hour Yoga Business Training with Jess Rose
10 – 17 OCTOBER, 2020
Description of the retreat
Yoga and business are not an obvious combination.
If you are like most new yoga teachers, you graduated from your 200 hour teacher training inspired and ready to share your passion for yoga with the world. Sadly, many yoga teachers give up once they realize that stepping into the studio to teach doesn’t necessarily pay the bills. Being a successful yoga teacher means becoming the entrepreneur and CEO of your own personal brand. It means learning how to market yourself and your teachings to the exact group of students who want what you have to offer.
This doesn’t have to go against your principles as a yogi or feel inauthentic or unnatural. Having business smarts is the only way to keep your dream job AND be able to pay the bills.
With some business basics in your toolkit, you will be able to support yourself while being the change you wish to see in the world. With the right mix of yoga training and business acumen, you will be aligned with your purpose as a yoga teacher and empowered to thrive in your yoga business.
If you are passionate about teaching yoga but disinterested in, unsure about, or even afraid of the various business aspects of being a professional yoga teacher, this training was designed for you.
This training will cover:
- Business essentials for all professional yoga teachers
- How to identify your money blocks and work through them
- Which platforms will help grow your yoga business and how
- How to outline and organize the various aspects of your yoga business with ease
- Creating a stand-out CV and applying for jobs
- The ins-and-outs of marketing yourself with authenticity on social media
- Using social media to fill your classes and sell your events
- Why yoga teachers need email marketing and how to grow your list
- How to find your niche and create a supportive, dedicated community around your offerings
- Essential tools for creating your unique brand with fonts, colors, text, and image
- The most effective ways to promote local classes, workshops, retreats, and other events
- How to advertise your events on Facebook, Instagram, and Google, both organically and as paid ads
- How to take and use eye-catching pictures that relate directly to your brand and offerings
- The power of video in creating connection with your audience
- Project planning for class series, workshops, retreats, and online classes
- Website essentials – choosing a platform, implementing your branding, and creating a great website
Please bring your laptop to the training, as we will jump right in and workshop the techniques covered in the discussions.
Not only will we cover key elements of starting and maintaining your yoga business, but we will workshop the lessons with daily hands-on labs and some self-paced “homework.” These labs will help you implement the skills and techniques immediately and get a jump start on your yoga business before you even leave the training. Jess will be there to help guide you through the startup or development of your business and tackle any questions that arise.
- Hands-on training labs
- One-on-one support from Jess in developing your yoga business and brand
- 6 full days of training including morning asana practice and 2 daily group business sessions / workshops
