Lead Associate

About Y7 Studio LLC

The Y7 experience combines vinyasa yoga, music, heat and darkness, connecting you deeper to your mind and body. All studios are heated to 75-85 degrees using state-of-the-art infrared technology, which helps create a detoxifying sweat that stimulates blood circulation and increases flexibility. This is a music-driven practice where you will flow to tracks from varied genres. Classes are held in a dark, candlelit room with no mirrors to encourage you to turn your focus inward and explore your individual practice.

We started Y7 with a mission of breaking down barriers to make yoga inclusive and accessible. Our goals for the workplace are similar: to create an inclusive, challenging and fun environment that enables employees to fully explore their potential. We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive culture that encourages, supports and celebrates the voices of all clients and staff.

Interested in working in a Yogi's paradise? Y7 is that place and we are excited to announce we are looking for Lead Associate to join our team for our Brooklyn and Manhattan studios.
