The Mentorship Program for Yoga Teachers + Wellness Professionals

If you're a yoga teacher who aspires to become a wellness entrepreneur and wants to learn how to authentically monetize your offerings while centering service and community — then this program was made for you.

Our Founder, Angie Franklin, designed this program to close the existing business gap for yoga teachers by providing education, tools and resources necessary to build a wellness brand that goes beyond the studio.

Graduates Share How DYT Has Transformed Their Business

Angie has graduated 131 wellness professionals of color worldwide.

Megan Noel, Round 2

Oakland, California

I am so grateful I found Angie! I started the DYT mentorship program right after completing my 200 HR yoga teacher certification program. I felt lost after my training, with no clear vision of where I should get started as a teacher. Angie gave me so much more than guidance. Her feedback and the modules she created really helped me pin point which steps I needed to take to be a successful yoga teacher AND entrepreneur. On top of all of that, my brand identity completely upgraded after completing this program. I now have brand colors and a brand style that perfectly aligns with my personality. Angie truly wants to see her mentees win. I honestly can't recommend this program enough. It was an absolute game changer for me, and I'm so honored to have someone like Angie in my corner.

London McElvaine, Round 1 + 6

Denver, CO

The DYT mentorship gave me direction and focus at a time when I was feeling so lost on my path. Angie shows up to this program with so much integrity and authenticity and its contagious. I finished this program with clarity of my next steps and a deep connection to my purpose as a yoga teacher. If you are looking to break free from the status quo of yoga studio culture, this mentorship will rock your world.

Melody Sylvain, Round 1

Dubai, U.A.E.

I learned so many tools in the DYT program from marketing to getting over self-doubt. I'm especially thankful for Angie's dedication and passion to empower women of color to step up in wellness. I also made life long friends during the program who shared this journey with me and I will be forever grateful for the experience.

De'Yanna, Round 4

Los Angeles, CA

In Angie's DYT program I gained lots of valuable information! Out of all the mentorship programs this is by far one of the smartest investments I've made for my brand. I also recommend this program because everything is presentable and she walks you through a new focus week by week. And it’s amazing that even after the program you still have access to DYT community shall you have any questions and simply just want to share what you’ve learned. Even weeks after I am able to still put the information I’ve learned into practice. Thank you Angie!

Shakeelah Sutton, Round 2

Washington, D.C.

The DYT program taught me a great deal about creating a wellness brand from the ground up. Not only have I gained foundational business and marketing tools, I’ve developed the confidence necessary to grow as an entrepreneur for the benefit of my community.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is this program only for yoga teachers?

    No! The information in this program is foundational for any BIPOC building a wellness business. Although some examples are specific to yoga (naturally because of my background) I've had vegan chefs, herbalists, wellness coaches, event curators, meditation guides, astrologers and more have success with the program.

  • How long do I have access to the program?

    You get lifetime access to the course, which means you can revisit the curriculum again and again.

  • What is the time commitment to be successful in the program?

    Approximately 4 hours a week. This includes a 90 minute weekly group call, 1 hour for your accountability partner connect and 1-2 hours for each module.

  • What if I can't make the live group calls?

    All our group calls are recorded and uploaded the same day so you can watch at your own leisure if you can't make it live. In addition, you can email Angie with any specific module questions that she can answer on the call.

  • How will I connect with my accountability partners?

    Once you enroll, you'll fill out a survey that Angie reviews to pair you with best possible partners. From there, you'll be connected via email after the meet + greet call and decide amongst yourselves what works best for your weekly meet-ups.

  • Will I get personalized attention in a group setting?

    Absolutely! Angie goes above and beyond to make sure that everyone has a chance to ask questions and get feedback in the group calls. She often goes longer on the call time to make sure she can give personalized strategies that are specific to your challenges and business goals.

  • What if I enroll and realize I'm not ready?

    Although Angie makes sure that this curriculum is simplified enough to build upon each module, if you feel like this program isn't a fit after enrolling you can reach out to Angie directly to to find a solution.

It's your time.

Listen, the time to level up is now — leave fear and self-doubt behind and go all in on yourself love. I've taken many leaps of faith in my journey as an entrepreneur and not one has led me down the wrong path. Money will come and go but opportunities like this are of the essence. Give yourself the opportunity to journey with and be supported by a loving community of likeminded people from all over the world. It's your time baby, let's go!
