My goal is to make what I offer inclusive in all manners. For this reason I have created Fair Pay Yoga fee structure that considers the socio-economic circumstances of clients as well as the teacher. I allow clients to decide what is affordable to them in relationship to the benefit they get from the session or class series. Below you will find a suggested fee structure for Fair Pay Yoga. This does not consider extenuating circumstances, or people in marginalized communities (e.g., BIPOC, 2SLGBTQ+, immigrants) and should therefor be considered a guideline only.
If you have financial means and would like to “pay it forward” allowing me to offer more subsidized spots while maintaining a fair wage than please let me know what you can contribute when you book.
Fair Pay yoga is about more than what a client pays. It is a system of reciprocity - making yoga widely available and inclusive to all, while recognizing the value for the support provided by experienced Yoga Teachers and Yoga Therapists.

** Income assumes total yearly household income before tax including subsidies and support. For Families with more than one child subtract $12,000 from your yearly income for each additional dependent child and use the “couple + 1 child” table to calculate your eligible discount. These are guidelines only. Please use your discretion when calculating.**
Example: A couple with 2 dependent children.
STEP 1 - CALCULATE YOUR HOUSEHOLD INCOME
Parent 1 earns $30,000 before tax + Parent 2 earns $40,000 before tax = Total Household Income $70,000
STEP 2 - CALCULATE YOUR PRO-RATED INCOME
Subtract $12,000 from your household income for each additional dependent child -> $70,000 - $12,000 = $58,000
STEP 3 - USE THE “COUPLE + 1 CHILD TABLE” TO FIND YOUR ELIGIBLE DISCOUNT
A couple + 1 child with a household income of $58,000 would be eligible for a fee reduction 25%
I recognize that this can be a little confusing depending on your family structure. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to reach out for support in calculating your fair pay fee iam@katlinrobinson.com.
