Thousand Oaks, CA Position:

Part-time / Full-time (flexible schedule) Reports to: Studio Director / Program Lead About Us At The Ritual Heated Studio, we believe that yoga is more than a class—it's a way of living, a ritual of presence, intention and transformation. Our studio is built upon community, authenticity and the power of intentional movement. We offer a wide range of classes—vinyasa, sculpt, ashtanga, yin, pilates—all supported by state-of-the-art infrared heating technology, designed to enhance mobility, detoxification, circulation and inner resilience. The Ritual+2The Ritual+2 We honour each individual's path and we invite teachers who hold space for students to step into their practice, find their ritual, and carry the benefits off the mat into their lives. The Ritual Role Overview We're seeking a dedicated, inspiring yoga teacher with at least 3 years of teaching experience who aligns with our studio's beliefs and lineage. You'll lead classes across our offerings, nurture our community, and collaborate with our team to uphold the elevated yet grounded, inclusive environment our students value.
