Empowering Yoga Teachers: The Yogi Incubator empowers Yoga teachers to thrive in their careers as they serve and share their gifts in an increasingly competitive, corporate and mainstream landscape.

We offer programs in intensive and extensive formats. These programs combine learning fundamental marketing, business and financial skills to create growth and prosperity along with tools to cultivate the mindset that invites and embraces such expansion.

Inspiration: We dedicate this program to the many yoga teachers who find their growth limited, despite their incredible talents and intuition. We believe the heart-centered success of these committed professionals will fuel the evolution and growth of yoga and, ultimately, make this world a better place. We thank master teacher Rod Stryker for the inspiration and guidance.

Why Incubator? In the business world, an incubator helps start-up companies grow through the use of shared resources, management expertise, and knowledge. Our program combines this structure with intuition, emotion, community support and trust in the Universe. The result is a way to present yourself in the world that makes solid business sense, and is also authentic, creative and insightful. If you’ve been praying to Ganesha to remove obstacles, this may well be His answer!

How it works: The incubator is a journey, and its essence is the practical application of marketing and business fundamentals to the yoga teaching profession.

Through lectures, sharing and practical work, participants gain a clear picture of the vast territory called ‘business’. You will uncover the gaps in your knowledge and begin to bridge them.
