My Vinyasa Practice: How to Build a Scalable Online Course

Course program

How to Build a Scalable Online Course is a self-paced training from My Vinyasa Practice designed for wellness professionals and yoga teachers who want to package their expertise into a digital offering. Led by C-IAYT yoga therapist and MVP founder Michelle Young, the course bridges yogic values with practical business strategy to help students launch a sustainable online program on their own terms.

This training is open to wellness professionals, yoga teachers, and holistic entrepreneurs who want to translate their expertise into an online course. No prior business or course-creation experience is required. It suits practitioners who are just getting started, as well as those expanding an existing offering — whether opening a studio, launching an online platform, or growing a personal brand.

The curriculum walks through the full lifecycle of building an online course. Students start with audience identification — clarifying who the course is for and what problem it solves — and then move into choosing a course format, creating a course outline, and writing effective lesson plans.

A practical production block covers best practices for recording video content, the editing process, and setting up payment processing for digital sales. From there the course shifts into go-to-market work: building a pre-launch strategy, running organic and paid marketing campaigns, adding new content and creating updates after launch, designing an upsell strategy, and expanding to additional platforms over time.

Throughout, the training threads yoga business planning, branding, and client engagement into the curriculum, giving students a framework for designing offerings that align with yogic values while operating as a real business.

The entire program is guided by Michelle Young, founder of My Vinyasa Practice. Michelle is a C-IAYT certified yoga therapist with an M.Ed. in Instructional Design and Curriculum Development, and she has built My Vinyasa Practice into a Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School serving an international community of students through online trainings and continuing education.

The format is fully self-paced and remote. Students get pre-recorded video lectures, ebooks, and PDF downloads they can move through at their own pace, with lifetime access to all materials. The course is supported by 1:1 mentorship and live support during business hours through MVP’s weekly live calls. All required materials are included in the course.

    This Viniyoga training exceeded every expectation I had. I loved how each lesson emphasized personalization and adapting yoga to the individual. I now feel confident offering sequences that truly meet my students where they are.

    As someone who wanted a more therapeutic approach to yoga, this training was exactly what I needed. The instruction is clear, compassionate, and deeply informed by the Viniyoga tradition. I gained practical tools for working with different bodies and abilities, learned mindful pacing.

    This program helped me reconnect with the heart of yoga. The integration of philosophy, functional movement, and breathwork created a learning experience that felt both personal and transformative. I've grown not only as a teacher but also as a practitioner.
