• Encourage participation without making students feel pressured or intimidated
• Adapt activities to different abilities, comfort levels, and experience levels
• Promote confidence, self-awareness, and positive peer interaction
• Monitor students and promote safe movement practices
• Maintain an organized and welcoming classroom environment
• Communicate professionally with program coordinators and school staff
• Arrive prepared, dependable, and ready to engage students

Experience in yoga instruction, fitness, coaching, mindfulness, wellness programs, physical education, camps, youth programs, tutoring, or mentoring is a plus.

We encourage yoga instructors, fitness instructors, dancers, coaches, wellness professionals, college students, recent graduates, aspiring educators, camp counselors, youth leaders, and individuals with a passion for movement and mindfulness to apply.
