Seasonal / Full-Time / Mid-November–March

We are looking for a certified Yoga Instructor to join our wellness team for the winter season. This is a full-time, guest-facing role focused on guiding small group sessions and private classes. The teaching style should combine traditional yoga foundations with gentle, somatic, and nature-based movement. An understanding of Nordic folklore, mindfulness, and forest bathing practices is a strong advantage.

You’ll be guiding early morning group classes and offering private movement or meditation sessions during the day. We value a calm, intuitive teaching style over performance. Training in sound baths and other wellness modalities will be available as part of the role.

Responsibilities:

• Guide small group yoga sessions (primarily morning)
• Offer private sessions in yoga, meditation, or forest movement
• Incorporate yoga philosophy and mindfulness into classes
• Help curate a peaceful, safe, and inclusive movement space
• Collaborate with spa and guest service teams for scheduling and flow
• Participate in wellness team briefings and ongoing development

Requirements:

• 200h Yoga Teacher Training (Sunbase or equivalent certification required)
• Experience teaching gentle, accessible, or somatic styles of yoga
• Comfortable teaching both structured classes and intuitive sessions
• Fluent in English; Finnish and other languages are bonus
• Background in mindfulness or meditation practices preferred
• Willingness to participate in internal training (e.g. sound baths, rituals)
