Have you ever thought about opening a yoga studio — or wondered how to take your current studio to the next level? In this special episode, the tables are turned! Instead of hosting, I’m the one being interviewed. My friend Shannon Crow, host of The Connected Yoga Teacher Podcast, puts me in the hot seat and asks all the questions I usually get from yoga teachers and studio owners.

We talk about my own journey from yoga teacher to studio owner to consultant, and I share real-world advice on what it really takes to build a profitable, sustainable yoga business. You’ll hear why planning ahead matters, why ClassPass may not be your best friend, and strategies you can use right now to create financial stability and grow your community.

What you’ll hear in this episode:
• My journey from yoga teacher to yoga studio owner to consultant
• What teachers should consider before opening a studio
• Why a business mindset matters as much as your teaching skills
• How to create financial stability and sustainability
• Why I don’t recommend ClassPass for studios
• Marketing strategies that actually work in today’s yoga business
