Jessica Murphy on Creating the Dirty South Yoga Fest

This week on the podcast I am joined by Jessica Murphy, who is a yoga teacher, podcast host, and the founder of the Dirty South Yoga Fest based out of Atlanta, GA. On this episode, Jessica shares her yoga story, what inspired her to create the festival, and what it takes to create and grow a successful yoga event or festival.

We talked about everything from finding a venue, getting teachers, promoting a big event, selling tickets, self-care when you're coordinating a big event, as well as what Jessica's learned through running the Dirty Yoga Fest! Enjoy!

Don't forget to check out the Dirty Yoga Fest this July!! 

This episode of the podcast is also brought to you by FavYogis! Here’s a business tool that’s really going to change the lives of yoga teachers. The FavYogis app puts control and freedom in your hands. You can update your class schedule, offer YOUR OWN classes ANYWHERE, ANYTIME; and GET PAID all from your phone! No more updating your schedule in multiple places and paying a ton of money each month for a software platform where students MIGHT stumble across your classes. Students simply open FavYogis and your schedule will be there.

 

On top of being able to send students notifications about class updates, set prices and ticket availability, and auto-send reminders to your students, you can also post workshops and events that will allow you to reach organic traffic through the search feature that you may never have been able to reach through simply putting the events on your website. There’s a brand spanking new feature on the Fav Yogis App!!! Teaching a lot of classes? Now you can auto-generate text for sharing your schedule on social media. Along with the time and date you can optionally include the title and location of each class or event!
