Down Dog gives eligible teachers renewable access to its yoga, Pilates, HIIT, meditation and barre app through its education program. If you teach at a primary, elementary, middle or secondary school, you apply with your school email address. Down Dog doesn’t say what the access costs, so the application is where you find out the terms.
The app builds you a new practice every time, so you pick a length and a level, and it fits the twenty minutes you have between the last bell and the staff meeting. See more health and fitness discounts for teachers.
How To Get The Down Dog Teacher Discount
- Open Down Dog for Schools and choose Apply for access.
- Pick Teacher / educator as your role and fill in your name, your school’s name and website, and the email address your school issued you.
- If you already use Down Dog with a different email, add it in the optional account field so Down Dog can find your account.
- Submit the application and follow the instructions in the email Down Dog sends back.
What You Get
Down Dog has yoga, Pilates, HIIT, meditation and barre, from beginner to advanced. You choose the pace, the instructor’s voice and the music, and you can practice on iOS, Android or the web, with offline downloads on mobile. You don’t need any yoga or fitness experience, because you can start with beginner-friendly practices and adjust the length and level as you go.
What To Have Ready
Down Dog can only approve an application that includes your school’s website and an email address your school issued. Personal email domains such as Gmail aren’t eligible, so use your school email even if your Down Dog account sits under your personal one. Down Dog verifies your school and its email domain, then explains how to get started.
If You Already Use Down Dog
Add your existing account email to the application so Down Dog can find it. Existing access and any previous education trial affect what you’re eligible for, and applying doesn’t automatically start a new trial, so check the email Down Dog sends back before you count on a fresh start.
When Your School Is Already Approved
Other eligible students and educators at your institution can benefit too. If a colleague has already applied and your school is approved, use your own school email address and Down Dog sends you instructions. You don’t need to arrange a new partnership for a school that’s already eligible.
Who Qualifies
Educators at primary, elementary, middle and secondary schools qualify through Down Dog for Schools. College and university faculty have their own page at Down Dog for Universities, where eligible educators can receive up to four years of access through the education program. Both programs ask for an email address issued by your institution.
