Our scholarships are awarded to those who wish to teach yoga in unique settings but do not have the funds to cover their own yoga teacher education. For example, if you are a school teacher, first responder, social worker – or anyone who has a special calling to teach yoga and requires financial assistance to get there – please e-mail info@nectaryogastudios.com for your scholarship application.
