BECOME A FACILITATOR AND START YOUR OWN YOGA TEACHER TRAINING SCHOOL
NEXT GEN FACULTY
A Mentorship with Jonah Kest
In Collaboration with Become a Yogi
Lead your own trainings. Build your own brand. Step into your next chapter.
You’ve invested in your practice. You’ve found your voice as a teacher. Now it’s time to create something that reaches beyond your weekly classes.
Next Gen Faculty is a four-week mentorship for 500-hour registered yoga teachers ready to lead teacher trainings, develop a distinct presence, and help lead their own yoga school in collaboration with Become a Yogi—with my direct support and a place within our teaching lineage.
I want to help you become the kind of educator people seek out. Someone with a clear point of view, the tools to guide others, and the confidence to lead a school that reflects who they are.
Your voice. Our lineage. My support.
Together, we’ll work on both your teaching and the way you share it with the world.
You’ll learn how to hold the room through a teacher training, shape a meaningful student experience, and develop your identity as a leader. We’ll clarify what you stand for, what makes your approach distinct, and how to communicate that through your brand, content, and offerings.
The goal is to help you grow within this lineage while becoming more fully yourself.

Your path to building your own yoga school starts here.
Let’s create something extraordinary together.
We’ll meet on Zoom 1x per week—offering a balance of structured learning, open Q&A, and collaborative discussion. These live sessions are where real transformation happens. You’ll be able to:
• Dive deep into the mechanics of leading a 200HR training
• Learn the business behind the scenes (pricing, logistics, marketing)
• Workshop your own curriculum and teaching voice in real time
• Get direct feedback and guidance from me every step of the way
