We invite anyone from urban Indigenous communities or remote, under served communities that would like to bring yoga to their community members to apply for a scholarship.

Our scholarships are meant to make the training accessible to people who would otherwise not be able to attend. We offer 10%-75% scholarships to applicants to subsidize the tuition. The amount is based on two things; how many people apply, and if applicants are currently working with under served remote communities.

We require that scholarship recipients teach 10 online public NSR classes within 1 year of graduation.

 We provide services to school systems in AZ, CA, MN & OK. and look forward to adding more! Please contact if you'd like to bring yoga to your schools!
