The Business of Yoga: Essential Workshop for Your YTT200 Graduates

Help your graduates launch their yoga careers with confidence!

Hello, I’m Rosie Marsland, and I know firsthand that becoming a yoga teacher is just the beginning of a beautiful journey. But, for many newly certified teachers just finishing their YTT, the next steps—especially when it comes to building a sustainable yoga business—can feel overwhelming.

That’s exactly why I created The Business of Yoga workshop: to help your yoga teacher trainees gain the guidance, tools, and confidence they need to transition from newly certified teachers to successful yoga entrepreneurs. This workshop is designed to complement your YTT200 curriculum by providing practical business knowledge while staying true to the core principles and ethics of yoga—ensuring that your graduates build their businesses in a way that aligns with the values of their practice, setting them apart from traditional business approaches.

If you run a Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) program, this one-day workshop is the perfect addition to your curriculum. It’s designed to help your graduates move beyond their training and turn their passion for yoga into a sustainable, thriving business.

Why add The Business of Yoga to your YTT200 program?

When your graduates complete their YTT200, they’ve mastered the physical and philosophical aspects of yoga. But what’s often missing is the practical know-how to create and sustain a yoga business. This workshop fills that gap, helping your trainees transition from being yoga students to confident business owners.

By offering The Business of Yoga, you’re not just teaching them how to lead a class—you’re equipping them with the essential business knowledge they need to start attracting students, growing their brand, and building a thriving career. From marketing to finances, I’ll guide them through all the first steps they need to launch their business successfully and with confidence.

What’s in it for you and your yoga teacher training school?

Enhanced Program Value
By adding this workshop to your curriculum, you’re offering something that truly sets your YTT200 apart. You’re giving your students the practical knowledge they need to move forward with clarity and purpose. It shows that you’re committed to their long-term success, beyond just teaching asana.
Empowered Graduates = Greater Success
Yoga teachers who feel empowered with business knowledge are more likely to succeed, and the success of your graduates reflects back on the reputation of your program. Graduates who leave with both teaching skills and business acumen are better equipped to thrive, and in turn, they’ll bring more visibility and credibility to your school.
Appealing to Future Trainees
Yoga teacher trainees today want a program that prepares them for every aspect of their new career—not just the practice of teaching. By incorporating this workshop into your program, you show potential trainees that your training goes beyond the basics. It’s an investment in their long-term success that will make your program stand out from the competition.

What We’ll Cover in the Workshop:

Getting Started: What to do on Day 1 after graduation.
Attracting Students: How to get bums on mats and build a loyal following.
Marketing Your Yoga Business: Building a brand and marketing your offerings.
Finance Fundamentals: The key financial essentials for a sustainable yoga business.
Tech Tips: Using technology to streamline your business.
Managing the Ups & Downs: Navigating the emotional rollercoaster of entrepreneurship.
Sustaining Growth: Keeping your yoga business thriving long-term.

By the end of the workshop, your graduates will have a clear, actionable business plan and all the tools they need to confidently take the next steps into teaching. With the skills they’ve built and the insights from their yoga teacher training on your course, they’ll be ready to teach in a way that’s informed and inspiring. This solid foundation will set them up for a fulfilling and successful yoga teaching journey.
