Yoga Teacher Training and Workforce Development
Training community leaders. Sustaining community care.
Majestic Community Wellness’s Yoga Teacher Training & Workforce Development program prepares Black, BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and historically excluded individuals to become trauma-informed wellness leaders — rooted in culture, community, and care.
Grounded in the Majestic Healing Pathways™ model, our training equips future instructors to deliver culturally grounded, trauma-informed yoga while building sustainable teaching careers.
This is more than a certification.
It is a pathway to leadership, economic opportunity, and healing that stays in community.
A Training Grounded in Community & Care
Participants are not expected to arrive as “experts.” We meet people where they are — honoring lived experience, caregiving realities, and the wisdom already held in community.
Our 200-hour training is grounded in the Majestic Healing Pathways™ model and designed to support both personal growth and professional readiness
Why This Training Exists
Many wellness training programs offer certification without addressing where — or how — graduates will teach afterward. This leaves community-based care under-resourced and aspiring instructors without sustainable pathways forward.
In addition, most training programs are financially and logistically inaccessible due to high tuition costs, rigid schedules, and centralized locations that exclude those balancing caregiving, work, and transportation barriers.
Majestic Community Wellness created this training to remove those barriers. Our Yoga Teacher Training is offered at no cost to Black, Brown, LGBTQIA+, and marginalized participants, delivered in a hybrid format, and supported with transportation assistance — including Uber rides to in-person training sites when needed.
This ensures that learning leads to leadership, paid teaching opportunities, and care that stays rooted in community.
What Makes This Pathway Different
Our program goes beyond certification. We equip future wellness leaders with the tools, mentorship, and support needed to lead inclusive, trauma-informed yoga and sustain themselves in this work.
This pathway is intentionally designed to reduce barriers to leadership and economic opportunity in wellness spaces.
Participants receive:
Deep grounding in trauma-informed, inclusive yoga practices
A 200-hour certification aligned with industry standards
Training in cultural humility, mindfulness, and teaching methodology

Caregivers, community leaders, and aspiring instructors
