Teach With Us

FlowWell teachers carry a mission into every room, park, and rooftop we touch. This page is your hub — meet who's already on the floor, see what we look for, and find your way onto our roster.

The Roster

Our Teachers

Click any card to meet them — their story, their schedule, and why they teach at FlowWell.

Requirements

What We're Looking For

Three non-negotiables. Everything else, we can teach or build together.

01

Mission-Aligned

You believe personal embodiment and collective justice are connected. You show up for the community in the room, not just the sequence on the page.

02

Accredited & Certified

You've completed an accredited training program — yoga, personal training, Pilates, or strength coaching. Yoga Alliance registration isn't required. Bring your certification with your application.

03

Insured

Current liability insurance is required for every instructor who teaches at FlowWell, no exceptions.

New to teaching?

If you're under a year into your teaching journey, we'll most likely start you on the sub list, the Yoga Beyond Street Team, or BFWC's Sunday Soul Flow. These are lower-stakes reps built to grow your confidence and craft before you step into a full studio rotation.

Getting Started

How to Join the Sub List

The sub list is the front door to teaching at FlowWell. Here's how it works.

1

Apply

Submit the FlowWell Teacher Application below with your certification and insurance info.

2

Meet & Practice

A short conversation with our team, plus a practice teach so we can see your style in the room.

3

Sign On

Sign the Independent Contractor Agreement and Code of Conduct via DocuSign.

4

Get Scheduled

You're added to the sub roster and notified whenever a class needs covering.

Growth Path

From Sub to Teacher

Subbing is the proving ground. Here's what moves you onto the full teacher roster.

1

Log 10 Hours

Sub a minimum of 10 hours — 10 classes — at The Sanctuary or through Beyond the Studio.

2

Earn a Staff Recommendation

The teachers and leads you've subbed for complete a short feedback form recommending you for the roster.

3

Move Up

Once both are complete, our Operations Director moves you onto the regular teacher schedule.

Beyond the Studio

Yoga Beyond Street Team

Wellness doesn't stop at our front door — and neither do our teachers.

The Street Team is the crew of FlowWell teachers who bring the practice into parks, rec centers, and community events across all 8 wards of D.C. — including our partnership with the DC DPR Fit Ambassador Program.

This is real reps in front of real crowds: outdoor Saturday flows with a DJ, indoor bi-monthly classes, and signature citywide wellness events, reaching people who might never walk into a studio.

38+events / year
8D.C. wards
4,700+residents reached

Good fit if you're:

  • Newer to teaching and want to build confidence and reps
  • Energized by outdoor, community-scale classes over studio polish
  • Comfortable teaching all levels, including first-timers
  • Excited to bring yoga to neighborhoods it doesn't usually reach
