I applied in-person. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at CorePower Yoga in Feb 2020
Interview
After going through CPY TT, I auditioned with a large group of other instructors. We each did the same part of the yoga class for about 5 mins. We then got audition results about 2 weeks later. This was pre-covid. When I was brought back to staff post covid, it was as simple as reaching out that I was interested to teach.
