Barre & YoBa Apprenticeship Program

Barre & YoBa Apprenticeship Program

This personalized experience provides you with the tools & support to creatively move all types of bodies, build intentional playlists, hone your voice & teaching style, and confidently lead a group Barre or YoBa Class.

Our 8 week program is perfect for those with less than 1 year teaching experience. You are passionate about movement of all kinds as a way of getting out of your head & into your heart, and believe movement should be designed for all bodies. You’re ready to share your love for movement with the community but need some extra support learning basic anatomy & physiology, the fundamentals of our own Barre technique, how to count music, and growing as a teacher.

Cost = $1200 (payment plans available)

Our 4 week program is perfect for those with over 1 year experience teaching in studio classes. You are passionate about movement of all kinds as a way of getting out of your head & into your heart, and believe movement should be designed for all bodies. You are rooted in your teaching voice & style and can confidently lead a group of students and know how to count music, but need to learn the fundamentals of our own Barre technique in order to teach at our studio.

Cost = $650 (payment plans available)

Please don't let cost be a prohibiting step in applying for apprenticeship. While we believe in the experience you'll receive through your mentorship program, we do have Scholarship opportunities, a work/exchange opportunity as well as creative ways to help you achieve your goal of going through your YoBa Apprenticeship. Fill out your application and let us know how we can work with you!
