What ChildLight Education Company does

ChildLight Education Company, LLC is a privately held, founder-owned yoga and mindfulness education company founded in 2005 and headquartered in Exeter, New Hampshire. Co-owned by Sally Delisle (Director of Trainings) and Megan Morris, the company designs, sells, and delivers evidence-based, trauma-informed yoga teacher training programs, curricula, and supplementary wellness content primarily serving aspiring and certified yoga teachers, K-12 educators, allied health professionals, parents, and families. Its flagship offerings are a Yoga Alliance-registered 200-hour adult yoga teacher training (self-paced, $598), a 95-hour children's yoga teacher training, and a portfolio of specialized modules covering prenatal yoga, babies and toddlers, tweens and teens, diverse abilities, yin yoga, athletes, and trauma-informed practice, along with a school-focused sub-brand, Yoga 4 Classrooms.

The core technology stack is intentionally lightweight and outsourced: a self-paced eLearning experience is delivered through the third-party Teachable platform with recorded video instruction, virtual live training occurs over Zoom, and the storefront runs on WordPress. The proprietary layer is content and credentials rather than software, including a trauma-informed, SEL-integrated children's yoga curriculum, RYT-200 and RCYT certification tracks, and complete downloadable lesson-plan packs priced at $10 per lesson up to $135 for bundled PreK-5 curriculum sets. ChildLight Education Company® is a USPTO-registered trademark, and the company has been a Yoga Alliance Registered Children's Yoga School, Registered 200-Hour Yoga School, and Registered Prenatal Yoga School since 2014.

The business model is predominantly B2C and long-tail SMB, with six identifiable revenue streams: training program tuition (one-time license-style), curriculum product sales, private class transaction fees ($55-$340), mentorship at $30-$60 per session, host-studio professional services partnerships, and customized professional development for schools and districts. Distribution combines direct e-commerce on childlighteducationcompany.com, the Teachable storefront, an in-person host-studio network across the US, and a directory-driven instructor network of 500+ certified teachers spanning 44 US states and 13 countries. Graduate-level semester credit is offered via the University of the Pacific and Courses4Teachers, creating a credentialed bridge into K-12 district purchasing. The company has no external institutional investors and operates with an 11-50 employee base.
