The yoga world is evolving, and so are the ways we communicate, teach, and share our work. As teachers, we hold the responsibility of expressing ourselves clearly, compassionately, and ethically—both on and off the mat. With this in mind, I am honored to introduce a new offering at Edge Yoga School & Arts: the Ai for Yogis 40-Hour Certification.
This program was created for yoga teachers, creatives, and wellness educators who want to strengthen their voice in a modern world. Many of us feel overwhelmed by digital communication or unsure how to integrate new tools without losing the human connection that makes yoga meaningful. Ai for Yogis bridges that gap with warmth, clarity, and intention.
Unlike courses that focus on technology alone, Ai for Yogis is centered on communication and authenticity. Every lesson is trauma-informed and rooted in the values of choice, consent, and clarity. You will learn how to collaborate with Ai in a way that feels supportive rather than mechanical—refining your teaching voice while keeping your intuition at the core.
The certification includes interactive webinars, hands-on labs, on-demand lessons, and a polished professional portfolio. You will learn how to create class plans, meditation scripts, newsletters, blogs, and communication workflows with ease. Through this process, you will develop a sustainable rhythm that supports your teaching and your life.
This course is gentle, flexible, and designed for both new and seasoned teachers. You will have up to eighteen months to complete the training, and labs can be scheduled directly from our HOME page at times that work best for you.
Ai for Yogis is more than a course. It is a supportive space for teachers who want to grow, communicate confidently, and share their work in a clear and ethical way. If this resonates with you, I invite you to learn more, ask questions, or begin your journey by connecting through the CHAT on our website.
I look forward to guiding you through this meaningful new pathway. Choose between a solo workshop or send Michelle a CHAT to begin a conversation about our certification program. Ai for Yogis: Tuition $1899
Warmly,

The Power of Playbooks: Building Momentum with AI at Edge
In the world of wellness education, structure and flow are everything. Whether you’re leading a yoga class, curating an art workshop, or managing your studio, having a clear system can transform chaos into calm. That’s where AI Playbooks come in — a way to map your creative rhythm into repeatable success.
At Edge Yoga School & Arts, we believe time is sacred. The more efficiently we work, the more presence we bring to our craft. So, let’s explore how a simple framework can give you:
More time for what matters most
More leverage to expand your reach
Accelerated results without burning out
Step 1: Map Your Processes
Just as we map out an asana sequence before leading a class, mapping your daily business or creative processes helps identify what flows naturally — and what creates resistance.
Write down the steps that move you from idea to completion. For example, if you run a weekly yoga newsletter, outline the flow from inspiration → writing → design → distribution. Seeing your process on paper brings clarity and helps AI tools support you where you need it most.
Step 2: Write Your Playbook
Think of your Playbook as your teaching manual — but for your creative or business systems. It’s where you tell AI what to do and how to do it.
Include:
Clear instructions: Guide each step as though you’re mentoring a student.
Examples: Offer templates or past successes for reference.
Success criteria: Define what a good result looks like, so you know when your work aligns with your vision.
For instance, if your goal is to write a weekly blog, your playbook might include sections like:
Draft an outline that captures the topic’s essence
Write in a warm, expert tone
Edit for clarity and brand alignment
This approach helps your AI collaborator (and any team members) follow your workflow intuitively.
Step 3: Have AI Do the Playbook
Once your process and playbook are defined, let automation tools like Zapier or ChatGPT take on the repetitive steps.
For example:
When your webinar ends, AI can transform your transcript into blog drafts or social captions.
When a new inquiry arrives, AI can personalize responses based on your studio’s tone and values.
This frees you to focus on the parts only you can do — like teaching, mentoring, or creating art.
Step 4: Build Momentum
Momentum is what turns ideas into transformation. Each time you refine a playbook or automate a step, you reclaim more time for creativity and connection.
At Edge Yoga School & Arts, we view AI not as a replacement for human insight, but as a collaborator that helps us stay in alignment — grounded, organized, and purpose-driven.
Over time, these small efficiencies ripple outward. Your newsletters go out consistently. Your students feel supported. Your art and teaching expand effortlessly.
Step 5: Reflect and Refine
Just as we revisit poses to deepen understanding, revisit your playbooks often. Ask yourself:
Does this system still serve my mission?
Can AI support this task better now than before?
Where can I add more creativity or heart?
This reflective loop keeps your systems alive — evolving with your growth as an educator, artist, and entrepreneur.
Closing Thoughts
Creating AI playbooks is like sequencing a yoga flow for your business — thoughtful, fluid, and intentional. The goal isn’t perfection; it’s ease. When your work flows, your energy follows.
So start small. Choose one process you repeat often — perhaps your social media posts, client emails, or class planning — and craft your first AI-assisted playbook. You’ll be amazed at how much lighter your workload feels when your systems start working for you.
Edge Yoga School & Arts is here to guide you on this mindful tech journey — blending the art of automation with the soul of human creativity.
