What Therapeutic Yoga Involves

At Jai Yoga, our Therapeutic Yoga classes focus on adapting postures, sequencing, and practices to meet students where they are -- supporting those who may be working with injuries, stress, chronic conditions, or physical limitations. Classes typically include:

Gentle, mindful movement adapted to a variety of bodies and abilities. Breathwork, guided relaxation, and awareness practices to support healing and stress relief. Props and modifications to create a safe and inclusive space for all students. A focus on functional movement and improving overall well-being rather than achieving "perfect" poses.

What We're Looking For

Certified yoga instructor with training or experience in

therapeutic yoga

, or confidence in holding space for students with diverse needs. Experience in

restorative and/or yin yoga

is a bonus. (If subbing for these class styles, rate is $30/hour.) Ability to create a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment. Professional, reliable, and community-minded.

Why Join Jai Yoga?

At Jai Yoga, we value creating a welcoming, authentic community space where yoga is for everyone. You'll be joining a supportive team of teachers who are passionate about making yoga accessible and transformative.
