Best platform for yoga instructorsMemberships + livestream + library
Sell $29/mo memberships, livestream weekly classes, build a searchable on-demand library, run 200-hr YTT cohorts — from one stack.
Why this matters
Yoga teachers need membership infrastructure, not just courses
Your business isn't 'launch a course and walk away.' It's recurring monthly membership + weekly livestream + ever-growing on-demand library + occasional cohort intake (challenges, YTT). Course-only platforms ignore the membership infrastructure.
What this page does
Honest pick by studio model
In-studio + online hybrid: Momence/OfferingTree handle the in-person booking better. Online-only or going online-first: Kourze handles membership + library + cohorts in one stack.

Top features that matter
What actually moves the needle for yoga teachers
Monthly membership with auto-gated library
Members at $29/mo auto-get on-demand library + weekly livestream + community. Cancel = lose access. Replaces Patreon ($50+ in fees) + Vimeo ($25/mo) + Discord juggling.
Livestream → auto-replay in library
Sunday vinyasa class on Zoom → recording auto-uploads to library tagged 'vinyasa' / 'all-levels' / 'Nov 2026'. Members who miss live get the replay automatically.
Categorized on-demand library
Filter by style (vinyasa / yin / restorative / kundalini), duration (15/30/45/60/90 min), level, prop usage. Members find what they want instead of scrolling endlessly. Major retention.
200hr YTT cohort engine
Closed 2-4×/year intake, $2,400 pay-in-full or 6 × $450, weekly modules + live calls, practicum video submissions with your feedback, completion cert. Yoga Alliance registration is separate.
Practicum video submissions
YTT students record themselves teaching a 30-min flow, upload to their progress page. You watch + leave time-stamped feedback. Major differentiator vs generic course platforms.
Pricing math
200 members at $29/mo + 8 YTT students at $400/mo × 6mo cohort — what you keep
Momence slightly cheaper at this volume but no YTT cohort engine, no practicum video feedback. Patreon stack loses ~$800/mo from the 12% take.
