Gratitude Studio Ambassador Program

The Gratitude Ambassador Program is an invitation for students who want a deeper, more connected relationship with their practice and their studio.

It’s for those who feel that yoga isn’t just something they do on a mat, but something that shapes how they show up — through care, consistency, and presence.

This program offers a way to:

• Sustain a regular or even daily practice
• Feel genuinely connected to the space you practice in and the community around you
• Experience the quiet fulfillment that comes from contributing and being trusted

Ambassadors commit to one primary role per quarter. 

Roles are clearly defined to support reliability and ease.

Time commitment: ~45 minutes per shift
Exchange: One free class per completed desk shift

Responsibilities:

• Arrive 30 minutes before class
• Check mats, props, and supplies
• Support front desk check-in
• Be available for late arrivals once class has begun
• Assist with transitions at the end of class

Times needed:

• Monday–Thursday evenings
• Weekend mornings

Time commitment: ~2.5 hours per run
Frequency: One run per week commitment.
Exchange: $59 Unlimited Monthly Membership

Responsibilities:

• Collect laundry bins from the studio
• Transport to laundromat
• Wash, dry, fold, and return laundry to the studio

Time commitment: ~2 hours per session
Frequency: One cleaning per week
Benefit: $59 Unlimited Monthly Membership

Responsibilities:

• Vacuum and mop floors
• Wipe down all high-touch surfaces
• Clean mirrors and glass
• Reset the space with care and attention

• Ambassadors commit on a quarterly basis
• Role changes or program exit can occur at the end of each quarter
• Reliability is essential to the success of this program. Ambassadors must communicate in advance if they are unable to complete a scheduled service
• An Ambassador may send a trained alternate to cover their shift. 
• Unexpected no-shows are highly disruptive. Uncommunicated no-shows result in removal from the Ambassador Program

Students who are interested in becoming an Ambassador are invited to submit a short application via email. Applicants should email gratitudehotyogaglenwood@gmail.com with the subject line: “Gratitude Ambassador Application – [Your Name]”

Choose a format to share that best fits you: written word, short video, audio note, photo + written reflection, or mixed format.

Applicants should address these points in their submission:

2. Describe your goals for your personal practice.
3. Talk about a time you received great service.
4. Describe how you navigate using shared spaces (home, office, etc).
5. Share about your past volunteer service experiences.

• Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis
• Selected applicants will be invited to a brief in-person conversation (15-30 minutes)

• Quarterly commitments are confirmed after that first month
