Energy Exchange
Our Energy Exchange Program is the most important part of the day-to-day operations of the studio! Participants are integral to creating and maintaining our atmosphere, energy and cleanliness around the studio. And for those who are the right fit, we offer the best compensation program in the city!
If you love yoga, and love what Yoga Grove has to offer, this is an excellent way to become part of the Yoga Grove community. By dedicating a few hours of your time each week, you’ll receive enough credit to support your yoga practice (and/or that of your friends and family), all while getting more involved with the studio, our instructors and a vibrant yoga community!

How It Works
Participants commit to one or more shifts per week (same time and day each week), working at Yoga Grove’s reception desk.
In return, they will compensated, either with an unlimited class pass, or with credit per hour.
You may choose to earn $20 per hour in credit to be used at Yoga Grove for yourself, and/or for their friends and family. Credit can be used to purchase non-discounted classes and class passes, workshops and lectures. It can also be used for up to 50% of the value of most merchandise and retreats. 25% of the value of DoTerra essential oils and products.
Credit accumulated each month must be used within 6 months. Classes and passes are valid for 6 additional months from the time of purchase.
Alternatively, you could choose to work 5 hours per week in exchange for an unlimited regular class pass. This pass would be non-transferable and non-sharable, and would last until the end of the week you do your final shift if/when you end the program. Restorative classes may be taken (if you pay the surcharge), but other special classes, workshops, retreats and merchandise are not included.

Responsibilities
The main responsibility for our Energy Exchange team is manning Yoga Grove’s reception desk. This involves greeting students, welcoming newcomers, describing our services to walk-ins and callers, answering questions, answering the phone, signing in students, selling merchandise and classes, handling payment, and other administrative and office work. It also involves some light cleaning and tidying of the studio and facilities.
Expectations
We are looking for friendly, enthusiastic and welcoming individuals who love yoga and what Yoga Grove is all about: creating a personalized experience of yoga.
People’s first impression of Yoga Grove is usually from their interactions in person or on the phone with Reception. It’s important therefore that our receptionists are warm, enthusiastic, informative and welcoming at all times.
Note that this position is not a volunteer position. Having an Energy Exchange shift should be treated like a regular paying job. You are expected to dress in work attire and to present yourself in a professional manner at all times. You are expected to arrive on time each week, and if you can’t make it for some reason (illness, vacation), you are responsible for having it covered by someone else on the team. Generally, if someone covers you, you offer to cover one of their shifts - this keeps the good karma going.
If accepted into the program, new participants are given a one-month probation period. This is to ensure you're the right fit for the job, and that you find this commitment manageable. Thereafter, we request that you try to commit to a minimum three-month period.
If you can see yourself making the time for this shift each week for at least a 3-month block of time, please get in touch with us - we’d love to explore this opportunity with you!
