For Teachers Who Work to Scale
The Teaching Collective is designed for experienced yoga teachers who want to earn more without teaching more classes—by shifting the model, not the workload.
Two Ways to Teach the Same Five Classes
Traditional Studio Model
Paid a flat rate per class
Typical pay: $30–$40
Attendance does not affect income
Income capped by schedule
Teaching Collective Model
Paid per enrolled student
Typical class price: $20–$30
Income scales with attendance
Direct relationship with students
Monthly Earnings: Studio vs. Collective
Scenario: 5 classes per week, 8 students per class & 20 classes per month
Traditional Studio
[Assume Class Rate $35]
Monthly income:
20 classes x $35 class rate = $700
Attendance does not change this.
Teaching Collective
[Assume $20 Class Rate]
Gross revenue:
20 classes × 8 students × $20 = $3,200
Teacher share (80%): $2,560
Less platform costs:
Monthly membership fee, revenue share and credit card processing fees.
Estimated monthly take-home: $2,250–$2,380

Membership in the Teaching Collective comes with shared standards.
Teachers are expected to:
Teach responsibly and professionally

Uphold the values of Unabashed Yoga

A Note From the Founder
The Teaching Collective exists because the studio model caps teachers’ income while demanding their best work.
I wanted to change the system—not ask teachers to work harder inside it.
