YogaSix teachers are dedicated to their growth, taking their teaching to the next level, and are part of an amazing group of teachers that is changing lives. YogaSix in La Quinta and YogaSix Palm Desert are looking for SCULPT AND FLOW teachers!

Our students are passionate about fitness, and are looking for skilled and dynamic instructors to keep them motivated, safe and engaged.  If you are interested in joining our team of teachers, being coached and supported to become the best teacher you can be, we encourage you to reach out and schedule an audition.  Our teachers are hired as employees (not independent contractors), and we invest in their development and growth.
