the Black Yoga Teacher Training scholarship

 Our inaugural year launched with the Wilmington Black Yoga Fest, featuring 7 volunteer instructors and 12 wellness vendors. In just one afternoon, our community raised $800+ toward the mission. Through a powerful partnership with the Yoga Chitta 200-Hour YTT program in Philadelphia, we were able to grant a total of $1,650 to our first recipient, Velora. This milestone proved that our community was ready to invest in diversity and representation. 

 The BYTT Scholarship was originally established to fund our founder Felicia’s certification, but after navigating the birth of her son, two car accidents, and significant life transitions, the timing wasn’t right for her to step into training. Instead of pausing the mission, Felicia chose to gift that first opportunity to the community, turning a personal goal into a collective tradition.

Once the timing aligned, Felicia began her own training journey. While running Flow with Fe LLC and teaching weekly classes at Liberty Yoga Studio, she attained her RYT-200 certification in December 2025 through the Flow with Tiff Yoga Teacher Training program. Shortly after, she relocated to Houston, Texas, to expand the flow.

 We proudly awarded a $533 partial scholarship to Briana Hughes for the 2026 Flow with Tiff Yoga Teacher Training program! We are honored to support Briana as she steps into her power and prepares to bring her unique light and leadership to the professional yoga realm. 

Will you be our 2027 recipient, or will you be the one who helps them get there?
