Love Teaching Yoga AND Connecting With People?

At YogaSix Viera, we believe a great yoga class is about more than the poses. It’s about creating an experience where students feel welcomed, supported, inspired, and excited to return.

We’re looking for passionate, engaging yoga instructors who love teaching just as much as they love connecting with people.

Our ideal instructor brings strong teaching skills, positive energy, and genuine hospitality to every class. Whether you’re helping someone through their very first yoga experience or encouraging a longtime member, you understand the importance of building relationships and creating a sense of community.

We’re a locally owned and operated studio in the Viera community, committed to providing exceptional instruction, meaningful connections, and an inclusive environment where students can grow in their practice.

We believe our instructors are at the heart of that experience.

Position Overview

YogaSix instructors lead safe, engaging, and empowering classes while creating a welcoming and supportive studio environment.

Our teachers are more than class leaders. They’re community builders who help students feel comfortable, connected, and motivated to continue their wellness journey.

We’re looking for individuals who take pride in the entire student experience, from the initial welcome to the final goodbye.
