Pros

Yoga Six is a small company with a BIG vision - to make yoga accessible and approachable to everyone by focusing on the body (as the gateway to the mind) and the tangible benefits of the practice. I love being part of an organization that is committed to making the type of impact that will change lives. I have heard so many "first yoga class" horror stories that deter people from the practice. On top of that the office has an open door policy and the team genuinely likes working together. Decisions are made based on data, and "failure" is okay as long as the learnings are carried forward and applied to the next project.

Cons

The company is growing quickly and experiences growing pains here and there. It's probably not the best place for someone who wants a lot of structure and consistency. Another thing to consider are the hours - the studios are open 365 days per year. This means that some team members are always working and occasionally need support (from the corporate team) outside of traditional work hours. Building a company can be a lot of work but it's also very rewarding.

Pros

* I believed in the brand. The YogaSix methodology is accessible, welcoming, and provides a strong foundation for introducing yoga to a wide range of students. *I had the opportunity to co-facilitate multiple Yoga Teacher Training (YTT) programs, which was one of the most rewarding aspects of my experience. Supporting aspiring teachers and watching them develop their confidence was incredibly fulfilling. *I enjoyed mentoring and onboarding new instructors, leading trainings, and helping teachers build the skills needed to succeed in the studio environment. *I met many talented, passionate, students who genuinely cared about creating a positive community. Those relationships were one of the highlights of my time with the company.

Cons

Leadership lacked consistency and accountability. Communication from management was often unclear, expectations shifted without explanation, and decisions appeared inconsistent. This created an environment where employees struggled to trust leadership. *High turnover created an unstable workplace. During my time with the organization, I witnessed what appeared to be nearly complete annual turnover across both management and staff. The constant departures made it difficult to maintain strong teams, preserve institutional knowledge, or provide a consistent experience for employees and members. *Business growth appeared to take priority over operational stability. My impression was that the company continued to heavily promote and sell Yoga Teacher Training programs while unresolved issues with leadership consistency, instructor continuity, and employee retention remained. I believe addressing these operational challenges first would have better served both employees and trainees.
