Your Yoga Studio Is Only as Strong as Your Teachers with Francesca Cervero

What makes a yoga studio thrive? It’s not the logo, the schedule, or even the space — it’s the teachers and the point of view that your studio holds.

In this special “podcast buddy” episode, I sit down with Francesca Cervero, host of The Mentor Sessions Podcast and long-time private yoga teacher and mentor. Francesca has been teaching yoga full-time for over 20 years, runs a teacher training called The Science of the Private Lesson, and mentors yoga teachers to develop a strong, authentic teaching voice.

Together, we explore the evolving yoga industry, the role of studio owners in elevating their teachers, and why having a clear point of view is more powerful (and sustainable) than trying to be everything to everyone.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• How yoga studios have shifted from community-led to franchise-driven — and back again
• Why teachers fresh out of training aren’t always ready for studio life (and how to mentor them well)
• The difference between “niching down” and developing a true teaching point of view
• Why your yoga studio is only as strong as the teachers who represent it
• How community studios today can compete with franchise-level tools
• Real talk about industry changes, competition, and what makes studios sustainable in 2025 and beyond
