The Yoga Geeks – a (mostly) exuberant team of yoga teachers and IT professionals officially launches from a tent! Yes, using a great combination of technology and a serene, scenic camp site, we are now designing yoga websites alongside our Kerala, India team from a tent in Denver, Colorado!  Our inspiration for starting this company was to make simple: to make what was challenging for us-finding a web design company that knew how to grow our yoga practice from start to finish-simple for other yoga teachers.

Now, how did we do this?? How did we launch an entire business, looking to fill the Grand Canyon-sized gap in the professional web design market for yoga teachers and studios, from a half-dome tent without cutting down on any of the pleasures of camping, yoga, hiking, or biking?

More than how, what is important is our purpose and what we are all about.

Who are the Yoga Geeks?

The Yoga Geeks are the the yoga community’s answer to the great question-I love yoga, and I have received awesome training from admirable teachers-now how do I get a a professional website, market my classes, and help as many people as possible while doing what I feel most passionate about-teaching and living the dream of yoga?  We like to say that we are your dedicated experts in yoga web design and internet marketing-but we’ll pass the mic to you.  Give us an Om and let us know how YOU feel. We are the only yoga-dedicated company exclusively serving up eye-catching and healthy cup of web design for the yoga-minded on the web-and we’re on tour, too.  That’s why we’re camping (since the views are astounding in the Colorado Rockies)-we’re traveling to meet YOU.  You see, when we first started meeting web designers years ago-it was via e-mail, mobile phones, and we really missed that warm, understanding feel of doing business face to face.  Do you prefer getting together over chai to sending e-mails or chatting on the phone?

A Vision with a Purpose

The Yoga Geeks  have embarked on a radical (and yet totally sane to us), uplifting vision to help yoga teachers and studios with their yoga website design, online marketing, and all other studio & student management stuff by trying, testing, and finding the information technology that really makes life and teaching yoga a lot more simple, and then sharing it with yoga teachers and studios.

Our purpose is to facilitate your yoga teaching and studio’s ideas to come alive visually on the web, and sharing them with the global, conscious community in a business style that is graceful, down-to-earth, warm, and friendly.

We had too many learning experiences when started, operated, taught in, and then sold our yoga and integrative medicine center.  Our inspiration for starting this company was to make simple: to make what was challenging for us-finding a web design company that knew how to grow our yoga practice from start to finish-simple for other yoga teachers.

We listen to you

Similar to a Sirshasana (Headstand Pose), we turned the information technology (IT) and yoga world upside down, by creating a novel concept of traveling to yoga studios , meeting with the teachers,  listening to their needs, and helping them realize their dream of teaching and studying yoga by having a an attractive web site and a solids website-which means that students are finding them every day.

We empathize with you, and endeavor to understand your unique needs as a heart and spiritually-centered business, since we are also yoga teachers and conscious information technology professionals.

Is your yoga teaching and studio’s purpose to promote peace, well-being, and wellness, and that the fulfillment of this purpose is just as critical as your prosperity?  If so, we feel the same way!  If you are feeling a tad bit lost, we are also here to help you clarify your purpose and broadcast it to the world on the web!

Move towards light and away from darkness

We believe in having fun (which means learning languages, seeing exotic, new lands, being with family and friends and intensely leaning something), doing yoga, sharing our knowledge of technology, and helping our yoga family grow and prosper. We had fun using technology – laptops, internet, social networks, etc. to help us launch successfully from a tent. And that is at the heart of our intention, helping as much of the yoga community use technology without having to become yoga geeks like us! It’s fun helping you, and the peaks are pretty amazing too. Since the fall is coming, we’ll go back inside for a while-let us know if there is a lovely flat near you, and you and your studio may be next on our list!

Many yoga teachers, especially those sincerely pursuing and undergoing their rigorous training through teacher training programs, really want to step out into the world with their deeply held principles of yoga, and earn a living sustainably and organically.   They, and we too,  wish to help and educate the global community through yogic principles.

With the sheer volume of administration and work involved in creating & finalizing the studio, attracting and maintaining students, creating & maintaining a website, keeping up with the fast-paced , and ever-changing environ of internet marketing, professionally networking, and be in touch with students- at times,  we feel unfulfilled no matter how much we loved teaching yoga in the beginning.

How does a yoga teacher build and sustain the beauty of the teacher-student relationship, so innate to all of the yoga traditions, while operating profitably in the modern schema of business?  It becomes an arduous task, and takes all the time away from what you really want to do – teach yoga and inspire others to follow the complete path of Yoga.  We certainly felt this way, and understand if you do too, even if you love your work, and yet feel unfulfilled at this time.

How did we turn this business upside down, so to speak, and start over again in a tent?!

When you make many of the mundane tasks redundant by adding technology, a website that really works for you, and highly-targeted, effective internet marketing, you can finally focus on teaching AND learning too.  Most yoga teachers LOVE learning!

Your Benefits

1. More growth – Having liberated the time to practice your own yoga, focus on spiritual growth and unfolding, and maybe even have a social life too!

2. Connect socially – We love to spend quality time connecting with our family daily and weekly, even if it is over the phone to India!  We feel great when we consult with a new client, because we know how awesome they will feel when they are learning yoga and connecting heart to heart often with their loved ones and students.  Our clients’ smiles and the dramatic, positive shift in their energy is the best!

Where are we?

We are right now in Denver, Colorado!! This is our second stop. We are returning to Boulder soon.  You can count on seeing us in the coming months in Boulder, Santa Fe, and Seattle.  Would you like to see your city on the list? We will be posting the list of cities we are visiting in the near future very soon, so please check our blog regularly.  We believe in flowing with our intuition, so the list of cities is not in any way final. Just leave us a comment.

In this sincere endeavor to serve yoga teachers and students alike by bringing you together, we hope that we can help you share the knowledge and experience of yoga, not only about yoga asanas, but especially yoga values, since teaching and learning yoga are blessings such that we have one phrase left to describe it:

Shanthi Om (With Peace)
