DEI Trainings for Fitness Spaces

After 7 years of conducting DEI work in fitness spaces, The Driven Yogi closed its doors in April 2024. During its time in operation The Driven Yogi team trained hundreds of yoga teachers in conscious and unconscious bias trainings, which led to an increase of 40% more people of color joining and being accepted in these spaces due to constant work of the teams at these studios. The Driven Yogi team also led two, three part comprehensive trainings for over 1,500 Yoga Alliance members in June 2023.
