Pros

When people ask me why I love working for Yoga Six, one of the first things I always say is, "This company exhibits integrity at every level- from the top down." In addition to having a passion for changing lives through results driven yoga, the Yoga Six corporate team leads by example when it comes to being open to feedback and accountable for their actions. Most conversations are productive and solutions focused. There is a heavy investment of time and funds into Team Member Development to ensure every new hire is set up for success, and mistakes are accepted as part of the learning process. The company culture is truly one of living yoga "off-the-mat" and I am honored to be surrounded by a team with incredible drive and work ethic to make BIG things happen as we expand. Innovation, taking initiative, commitment, and getting results are rewarded.

Cons

Everyone is passionate and personally invested in the successful execution of our aggressive growth plans. This level of passion can lead to a bit of reactivity and taking feedback personally. Micromanagement is a no-go here (which is NOT a con at all!). I say this to forewarn anybody who likes a work environment that is task oriented with a lot of schedule structure.

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.
