Now Hiring: Early Morning Weekend Hot Vinyasa Instructor

Support our Santa Fe community with breath-centered movement and grounded leadership in our 7:30 AM weekend classes.

Thrive is seeking a certified yoga instructor to lead our Saturday and Sunday 7:30 AM heated vinyasa classes on a permanent basis. These early morning sessions are a valued part of our weekly rhythm, offering participants a steady and energizing start to their day. Our heated room typically ranges between 86°F and 90°F.

We are looking for someone who teaches in a vinyasa-based style with a medium to vigorous pace. Past formats have included Hot Vinyasa, Hot Mindful Flow, and Hot Power Flow. While we aim to maintain a consistent structure, we welcome your unique teaching voice and thoughtful interpretation.

This role is focused specifically on early morning weekend coverage, with potential for growth over time.

Who We Are Looking For

We are seeking an instructor who values consistency, clarity, and long-term community engagement. The ideal candidate brings presence, humility, and professionalism to every class, and offers guidance rooted in breath awareness, alignment, and body wisdom.

At Thrive, teaching is an act of service. We appreciate instructors who prepare deeply, lead with care, and support the studio’s mission with integrity. We are not looking for shortcuts or short-term availability. We are seeking someone who strives for excellence and leads by example.

You will be joining a team that honors mutual respect, shared responsibility, and a culture of sincere connection. We expect each member of the team to support one another and uphold Thrive’s philosophy, practices, and policies.
