The Practice Space is setting a new standard in the yoga and Pilates industry with the first-ever full-time salaried teaching positions in Portland. While full-time roles aren’t currently open, this groundbreaking model is redefining what it means to have a sustainable, fulfilling career in movement education; and it creates new opportunities for affiliate and substitute teachers looking to grow with us.

Why This Matters

For too long, yoga and Pilates instructors have been expected to juggle multiple jobs, teaching class to class without stability, benefits, or long-term security. At The Practice Space, we believe that supporting our educators is essential to supporting our students. Our full-time model ensures consistent pay, health benefits, and career growth, a revolutionary shift that challenges the scarcity mindset ingrained in our industry.

What Makes a Full-Time Educator Role Unique?

• Salaried Position – Experience financial stability with a consistent income, free from the unpredictability of per-class or per-student pay.

• Employer-Sponsored Health Benefits – As movement educators, your well-being matters. Quality healthcare so you can care for yourself as you care for others is a new standard The Practice Space is setting.

• Paid Vacation Leave – Four weeks of paid vacation—because rest is just as important as movement. When was the last time you were paid to recharge? Now, its possible.

• Integrated Role in the Studio – Beyond teaching, educators have opportunities to engage with students, create educational content, and shape our community.

• Collaborative Teaching Environment – Work alongside affiliate and substitute educators to foster a supportive and enriching learning experience for all.

A Pathway for Growth

Even though full-time educator positions are currently filled, this model opens doors for our substitutes and affiliate teachers to expand their role in the studio. Whether you’re looking for a consistent teaching schedule, private session opportunities, or mentorship from our core educators, The Practice Space provides a career path… not just a job.

Be Part of the Future of Movement Education

If you’re inspired by this vision and want to be part of a studio that values fairness, innovation, and educator well-being, we encourage you to start with us as a substitute or affiliate teacher. As we continue to grow, we will look to our dedicated teaching team first when full-time opportunities arise.
