SCARBOROUGH
New Leaf Yoga Foundation’s mission is to empower youth through yoga. We specifically reach out to young people who reside in some of the least-serviced communities and facilities and who are overcoming histories of abuse, neglect, incarceration, gang-involvement, addiction, and marginalization.
Our broader mission is make yoga more inclusive and accessible and we seek individuals for our teaching team who will reflect these qualities. We do not teach or promote any one style of yoga; rather, our approach is to offer a combination of physical yoga, simple breath work, and basic mindfulness meditation.
Our organization is currently recruiting passionate, experienced yoga teachers for weekly classes.
Our ideal candidates will:
- be able to draw from personal experience or have worked extensively with marginalized
youth and have a deep understanding about the unique set of challenges they are
facing
- be committed to offering yoga within our organization’s trauma-sensitive and anti-
oppression framework
- have a minimum 200 hour yoga teacher training, 1 year minimum teaching* & be
experienced at adapting classes to the various needs of students
New Leaf Yoga Foundation is an equal opportunity organization; we are dedicated to broadening the range of voices and experiences that are included within yoga and encourage applications from candidates who reflect the diversity of the communities we serve.
If you are interested in teaching with us, we recommend reading through our website thoroughly to become familiar with our work, download our teaching application here and send completed to: laura@newleafyoga.org.
* Teachers with less than 1 year teaching experience are encouraged to apply and will be evaluated on individually based on personal experience and/or professional training in related fields.
