of yoga coaching.

Forty practitioners. Two full days with Dr. Suzie Carmack. A full year of mentorship, ten ready-to-deliver group programs, and the founding designation in a field about to become the standard.

Day 1 changes how you see chronic disease. Day 2 is where you become the practitioner who moves lives forward in your community — with the curriculum, the cohort, and the credentials to back it up.

Three things you only get by walking through Day 2.

Tier III isn't an upgrade. It's a different role in the field. Tier I and Tier II make you a yoga coach. Tier III makes you a founding member of the group yoga coaching field — with a full year of mentorship, ten programs ready to deliver, and a featured place in the directory clients are about to start searching.

Pillar 01

The full year of mentorship.

Monthly online meetups and group case mentorship with Dr. Suzie Carmack — for the full twelve months following the Summit. You don't leave Day 2 with a certificate and a wave goodbye. You leave with a year of guided practice, peer cases, and direct access to the founder of the model.

Pillar 02

Ten programs, ready to deliver.

Ten evidence-informed group yoga coaching programs — with the curriculum, the participant materials, and the promotional toolkit already built. You aren't designing a program from scratch. You're choosing the one that fits your community and customizing it to launch.

Pillar 03

The featured directory listing.

A featured designation as a Group Yoga Coach in the App — the directory clients are searching as the model becomes the standard. Founding cohort members are listed first. When the field grows, the people in this room are the people clients find.

Everything that comes with your founding seat.

Tier III is everything in Tier I and Tier II — plus Day 2, plus the year of mentorship, plus the ten programs, plus the directory listing, plus the founding pricing. Once the founding cohort is filled, this door closes for good.

i. The Day 1 Summit

Full convening with Dr. Suzie Carmack.

The opening plenary, all four healing conversation sessions, the Yoga Coaching Labs, the Genius Break demonstration of the Traffic Light Method, the Q&A, lunch on-site, and the Yoga Coach Toast.

ii. Yoga for One Coach Training

Self-paced certification, online.

The full Traffic Light Method and COACH model curriculum — self-paced, online, and required for Day 2. Plus access to the training community and 14 hours of CE credits from ACE, NBHWC, IAYT, and Yoga Alliance.

iii. Day 2 Live Launch

The Group Yoga Coaching certification debut.

The model walkthrough, curriculum review against NBHWC group health coaching competencies, evaluation-based program design, and your community launch plan — built in the room with the founding cohort.

iv. A Full Year of Mentorship

Monthly meetups with Dr. Suzie.

Twelve months of monthly online meetups and group case mentorship with Dr. Carmack and the team. Bring your real cases. Get real coaching. Build a real practice.

v. The Featured Directory Listing

Your designation as a Group Yoga Coach.

Featured placement in the App's Yoga Coach Directory — the searchable directory clients use to find practitioners trained in the model. Founding cohort members are listed first.

vi. Continuing Education

All Tier II CE plus Day 2 credits.

14 hours of CE credits from ACE, NBHWC, IAYT, and Yoga Alliance for the Yoga Coach Training — plus additional CE for Day 2 (specifics announced June 1, 2026). The CE you need to grow your scope.

The Ten-Program Library · Included

Ten group yoga coaching programs, ready to deliver.

Each of the ten programs comes with everything you need to run it in your community: the curriculum, the participant materials, and the promotional toolkit. You aren't building a business from scratch — you're activating a library that's already been built and evaluated.

Promotional toolkit Brand-aligned marketing assets, copy, and social materials to fill your programs.
Session materials Workbooks and handouts for participants — already designed, already evaluated, ready to use.
Referral pathway Through the app — clients find you, and your programs find their people.

A founding cohort. One time.

The first practitioners trained in the Group Yoga Coaching model are the people who shape what the field looks like everywhere it goes next.

The next time this certification opens, it will be through the established curriculum — built and refined by what happens in this room. The pricing will reflect that. The cohort experience will reflect that. The directory will already have a top tier of names in it.

That top tier is filled in September 2026 — and only in September 2026. The founding designation, the founding pricing, and the year of direct mentorship with Dr. Carmack are not running again. The practitioners who walk out of Day 2 with all three are the ones the rest of the field will train under.

The Prerequisites

What you need to step into Day 2.

  • Active status as a board-certified health coach (NBC-HWC) and/or RYT (Registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance).
  • Completion of the Yoga for One Coach Training — included with Tier III as a self-paced online certification.
  • Summit Day 1 registration and attendance — also included with Tier III.
  • A pre-event interview with Dr. Carmack — scheduled upon registration to review requirements and expectations.
Dr. Suzie Carmack

This is the year I open the founding door.

Dr. Suzie Carmack · PhD · MFA · MEd · ERYT 500 · NBC-HWC · C-IAYT · PCC

I've spent two decades building toward this room. The COACH model. The Traffic Light Method. The 3E evidence-informed framework. Four books. Eight peer-reviewed publications. And the lived experience of being a 14-year cancer survivor with Hashimoto's, who knows what it costs to carry chronic disease as identity.

Day 2 is the first time I'm handing the group yoga coaching model to practitioners in real time, in a room, with a year of mentorship attached. It will not be opened this way again. The founding cohort gets the year, the pricing, the directory placement, and the relationship with me directly — for as long as they're delivering this work.

I would be honored to mentor you through your first year of group yoga coaching. The founding cohort fills first-come, first-served. I hope one of those seats is yours.

The Tier III Founding Cohort.

Both Summit days, the self-paced Yoga for One Coach Training, the Group Yoga Coach certification, a year of mentorship, ten ready-to-deliver programs, and your founding directory designation. One seat. One investment. One time.

The Last Word

One open door.
