If you've been struggling to find yoga teaching work, whether you just finished your 200-hour, moved to a new city, or feel like there are more teachers than there are jobs—this one's for you.

Brea Johnson, founder of Heart + Bones and a yoga teacher with over two decades of experience, shares the honest, practical strategies she wishes more teachers knew about. From her years owning a brick-and-mortar studio (and being the one doing the hiring), she knows exactly what gets a teacher noticed, and what doesn't.

Found a creative way to build your teaching career that we didn't cover? Drop it in the comments—we'd love to hear it!

What we cover:

  • Why the yoga studio isn't always the best place to start — and what to do instead
  • How to rent your own space and actually fill it (even when nobody knows you yet)
  • The power of finding a niche to grow your classes faster
  • Working with gyms, physiotherapists, chiropractors, and corporate offices
  • What Brea looked for as a studio owner — and the things that almost guaranteed someone wouldn't get hired
  • How to build relationships that open doors, even if you're introverted
  • Why subbing is one of the most underrated ways to get your foot in the door
