The Rotating Scholarship Fund aims to:
Build Soulside’s capacity by empowering and sponsoring new teachers from communities we serve.
Soulside Healing Arts is seeking community members interested in becoming yoga teachers to participate in a trainee sponsorship program.
Soulside embraces the benefits of having a diverse team, and recognizes the structural barriers in place that have led to a majority of yoga teachers to be white females. The priority of diversity, as well as any previous dedication to a yoga practice, will be considered in recruitment of scholarship recipients.
