IT'S NOT OK that teachers aren’t taught how to turn their new qualifications into real-world offerings and niches.

IT'S NOT OK that teachers aren’t given guidance on forming partnerships after graduation.

IT'S NOT OK that post-course support stops the day the certificate is printed.

IT'S NOT OK that trainers don’t teach how to activate their alumni network.

IT'S NOT OK that specializations are taught without explaining how to use them in the market.

IT'S NOT OK that there’s 100% focus on teaching skills—and no focus on business or wellness.

THE YOGA TEACHER REVOLUTION STARTS ON OCTOBER 15th

Introducing the Trainee Success Score:

The Ultimate Win-Win
for Trainer and Trainee

Our commitment to protecting the highest standards in yoga is the same from the day we launched:

  • Further training courses must be led by teachers who have a minimum 2000 training hours and 4 years of teaching experience.
  • Foundation training courses must be led by teachers who have a minimum 4000 teaching hours and 8 years of teaching experience.

We continue to trust the knowledge and expertise of experienced teachers in creating training courses that prepare the fellow teachers to teach new techniques and skills.

What is changing on October 15th is that we will be providing transparency to yoga teachers around the world on the items that matter most to them, in addition to the curriculum.

The Trainee Success Score was created in response to the Yoga Teacher Revolution to help trainers who invest in their graduate’s success to stand out.

*Exclusively for Active YAP Members
 

HERE IS HOW THE TRAINEE SUCCESS SCORE IS CALCULATED:

1. Post-Graduation Support (90 Days Minimum)

Why It Matters to Potential Trainees:

One of the most impactful offerings you can include in your courses is a way to ensure your trainees receive support past their graduation. By including how you support their journey, you give them confidence they won’t feel lost or disconnected after certification. You want potential trainees to know they will never lack clear steps, teaching opportunities, or guidance on applying what they’ve learned.

Additional Benefits to Providing
Post-Graduation Support:

Icon 1

Staying connected to your graduates supports their success and strengthens your business.

Icon 2

You’ll gain direct insight from your graduates about their challenges—information that can shape future courses and make them more relevant.

Icon 3

Graduates who feel supported are more likely to refer others, share testimonials, and mention your program publicly.

Icon 4

Ongoing post-graduate support helps you maintain relevance and build a respected, sustainable business.

group-1000003090-1

“TEACHERS CAN’T IDENTIFY WHICH COURSES OFFER SUPPORT BEYOND GRADUATION.”

Info Icon

How You Earn This Point:

Add a short explanation to your course syllabus describing how you support your students for at least 90 days after graduation. This may include check-ins, career advice, follow-up emails, a private community, or guidance on Growth Journey tools. Once this field is filled out and the syllabus is approved, you’ll earn the point for that course.

Next Step:

Complete the newly added “Post-Graduation Support” question added to your accredited course form.

 
group-1000003199

Additional Benefits to Including This in Your Course:

  • Makes your course stand out: "Includes a career module powered by the Yoga Teacher Revolution".
  • Your graduates are automatically added as Followers for your courses. Anytime you add a new course, they will be notified.
  • Your course will display as an accredited qualification with a direct link to your certificate. Other teachers and employers will see your certificates increasing your opportunities for growth.
  • Gives you an easy way to stay connected with your graduates' growth

2. INCLUDE GROWTH PATH ACCESS IN YOUR CURRICULUM

Why It Matters to Your Trainees:

We can’t support your trainees if we don’t know who they are. By sharing your class list and integrating the Yoga Teacher Revolution into your course curriculum, you’re giving your students access to real-world tools that can help them teach sooner, stay confident, and feel supported.

Your trainees will be able to:

Icon 1 Access their Growth Path during the course and slowly start building their LiveCV. Icon 2 Get free membership to Yoga Teacher Revolution (including guided journeys and tools) Icon 3 (UK only) Activate up to £6 million in cover while they train, at no extra cost. Students who feel supported are more likely to refer others, share testimonials, and mention your program publicly.
Info Icon

YOU’LL EARN THIS POINT WHEN:

  • You share your trainee list with us for an upcoming or current course.
  • You include a short module or mention of the Yoga Teacher Revolution and Growth Path as part of your syllabus or course description (we’ll provide a free template).
 

3. INCLUDE A FREE COURSE ASSESSMENT

Why It Matters to Your Trainees:

One of the most common concerns we hear from teachers is that they’ve enrolled in trainings where not everyone is truly ready for the material. That lack of alignment can slow down the group, reduce the value of the experience, and ultimately compromise the quality of the certification.

When your course includes a clear assessment process, it shows that you're serious about standards and that you're protecting the integrity of the learning experience for everyone in the room.

Additional Benefits to Offering a Course Assessment:

Icon 1 Builds trust with prospective trainees who want high-quality learning environments. Icon 2 Differentiates your course as structured, serious, and standards-led. Icon 3 Reduces dropout rates and protects the overall classroom experience. Icon 4 Signals to employers and peers that your graduates have met verified benchmarks.

“TEACHERS INVEST IN TRAININGS THAT DON’T ENSURE A HIGH STANDARD OF LEARNING.”

“NEW TEACHERS HAVE NO CLEAR NEXT STEP TO LAND THEIR FIRST PAID CLASS.”

Info Icon

PUBLIC BENEFIT:

Courses that include this module signal to prospective students that your support extends beyond technical skills—you’re helping them actually get paid to teach.

4. SHARE THE FIRST PAID CLASS" Module
With Your Graduates

Why It Matters to Your Trainees:

Roughly 25% of yoga graduates never teach a single paid class. That’s not OK. This resource helps your students take immediate, confident action toward building real teaching experience—and increases the value of your course in the process.

The guide includes step-by-step instructions for:

Icon 1 Setting up a LiveCV Icon 2 Using Cover Class Alerts Icon 3 Writing a compelling Opportunities Pitch Icon 4 Reaching out to studios and peers
 

5. HELP YOUR GRADUATES EXPAND THEIR TEACHER NETWORKS

Why It Matters to Your Graduates:

Starting a career in yoga can feel like shouting into the void, especially online. One of the most meaningful things you can do as a trainer is help your graduates feel seen by your broader yoga teacher community.

By tagging them in a post, sharing their LiveCV, or simply celebrating them publicly, you give them a boost of credibility, visibility, and encouragement at exactly the right time.

“TEACHERS FINISH A COURSE WITHOUT HELP BUILDING THE NETWORK THEY NEED TO GROW.”

Additional Benefits to Sharing or Tagging Graduates:

Icon 1 When you tag a graduate, you also get seen by their networks. Icon 2 Potentially connects your graduates to your network of studios, teachers, and potential collaborators who follow you. Icon 3 Signals to future trainees that you’re invested in your students’ ongoing careers. Icon 4 Increases the likelihood of others in your network reaching out to support or hire them.
group-1000003090-1-2
Info Icon

HOW YOU EARN THIS POINT:

You’ll earn this point by agreeing (in your syllabus form) to tag or feature your graduates in a public-facing post around their graduation. This could include:
  • A simple graduation post tagging their names or handles
  • A “Meet Our Graduates” feature in your feed, story, or email
  • A post sharing one of their LiveCV profiles
We recommend sharing LiveCVs where possible since that directly boosts their search visibility but the format is totally up to you.

Info Icon

HOW YOU EARN THIS POINT

Have at least one active, publicly listed course on our directory. That’s it. Once your course is live and visible, you automatically earn the point.

6. HAVE AT LEAST ONE ACTIVE COURSE LISTED ON YOUR BRAND LISTING

Why It Matters:

Teachers want to learn from trainers who are active and engaged, not inactive profiles or legacy listings. This point helps us highlight trainers who are currently investing in the profession and available to support new students.

Public Benefit:

This signals to prospective teachers that your school is open for enrollment and actively supporting the next generation of yoga professionals.

“TEACHERS BROWSING FOR COURSES CAN’T TELL WHICH TRAINERS ARE CURRENTLY ACTIVE AND AVAILABLE.”

7. FOLLOW AT LEAST 5 OF YOUR GRADUATES (PAST 12 MONTHS)

Why It Matters to Your Graduates:

It may only take a second to click “Follow,” but the message it sends is lasting: I still care about your journey.

When you follow your graduates on Yoga Pros, you’ll be notified any time they post a new event, complete a challenge, or update their LiveCV. That makes it easier to stay connected, offer support, and even open doors to future collaborations.

It’s a small gesture that says, “I haven’t forgotten about you.” And for many graduates, that means everything.

Additional Benefits to Following Your Graduates:

Icon 1 Builds long-term trust and keeps your training brand top of mind Icon 2 Allows you to easily congratulate milestones and stay part of their growth story Icon 3 Helps you identify great candidates for future mentorships or partnerships Icon 4 Increases the likelihood they’ll re-enroll in your next course or recommend you to others Icon 5 Demonstrates to future trainees that you offer support beyond the final session

group-1000003090-2

“TEACHERS LOSE TOUCH WITH THE TRAINERS THEY TRUST—OR MISS THE NEXT STEP IN THEIR JOURNEY.”

Info Icon

HOW YOU EARN THIS POINT:

Once 10 or more verified yoga teachers follow your trainer profile within a 12-month period, this point is automatically awarded.

You can encourage followers by:

  • Sharing your trainer profile link with your graduate list.
  • Inviting students to follow you at the end of your course.
  • Including a “Follow Me on Yoga Pros” reminder in your emails or event pages.

NEXT STEP:

On October 15th, make sure your trainer profile is updated and ready to share. The moment you hit 10 followers, your training brand enters a whole new level of reach and recognition.

8. HAVE AT LEAST 10 FOLLOWERS ON YOUR TRAINER PROFILE (PAST 12 MONTHS)

Why It Matters to Your Graduates:

The Yoga Teacher Revolution isn’t just about your first course, it’s about what happens after.

When teachers follow your trainer profile, they stay connected to your future events, trainings, and opportunities without having to search or guess. Every time you post something new, whether it’s an accredited foundation course or a weekend retreat, your followers are automatically notified in their dashboard and weekly report.

It keeps the relationship alive and turns one-time students into long-term members of your teaching community.

Additional Benefits to Growing Your Followers:

Icon 1 Boosts visibility and attendance for every new course you launch. Icon 2 Builds loyalty among past trainees who already know and trust your style. Icon 3 Helps new teachers find trainers who offer ongoing mentorship and development. Icon 4 Makes your training presence stand out as active, engaged, and community-driven. Icon 5 Leads to higher repeat enrollment and more organic referrals.

9. LIST A SPECIAL DISCOUNT FOR YOGA TEACHER REVOLUTION MEMBERS

Why It Matters to Your Graduates:

Further training is a key part of every teacher’s growth journey and for many, the only barrier is affordability or access. A thoughtful special offer can be the difference between a teacher delaying their development or stepping into their next chapter with confidence.

As more trainers offer Revolution-only perks, more teachers return to the platform to look for their next training. The ripple effect is real: one small offer helps one teacher grow and builds long-term visibility and momentum for every course in our community.

Additional Benefits to Offering a Special Bonus:

Icon 1 Helps teachers say “yes” to the right course at the right time. Icon 2 Signals that you understand the real-world conditions teachers are navigating. Icon 3 Boosts your discoverability in search (offers are visibly marked on listings). Icon 4 Builds loyalty and appreciation from budget-conscious teachers who return again and again. Icon 5 Contributes to a shared culture of support that benefits all trainers on the platform.
