Mentorship
Mentorship is an opportunity for yoga teachers and trainees to develop their skills and deepen their knowledge of yoga through personal study. I designed this program for yoga teachers who are interested in taking their teaching, practice and passion to the next level.
We will discuss topics such as:
-
Defining our passion as teacher
-
Intelligent class design
-
Finding our voice
-
Thriving as entrepreneurs
-
Supporting our community
-
Creating personal rituals and practices that nourish our mind, body and soul.
Benefits
-
Increased self-awareness, motivation and confidence
-
Greater clarity of purpose and productivity
-
Increased organisational knowledge and know-how
-
Improved skills
-
Focus and preparation for the future and career aspirations
What's Included
-
You will meet with your mentor once per week for a discussion session. These sessions will be structured to outline your goals and objectives and discuss your progress. You will also be given reading and writing assignments relevant to your interests.
-
You are required to practice two Asana classes per week, either both with your mentor or one with your mentor and a second with a teacher that your mentor will recommend.
-
Initially, you will observe your mentor’s class and have a brief discussion afterwards to answer any questions that may have arisen regarding sequencing, assists, etc. If your mentor deems it appropriate, you may begin to offer assists within the class and, guided by your mentor, lead one or two poses in class.
-
Towards the end of the program, you will have an opportunity to teach two full-length classes. Your mentor will observe and provide feedback.
-
Your mentor will assign you reading and writing projects to complete, custom-tailored based on your personal intentions and what your mentor deems most appropriate for you.
Styles

Mentorship can be done in-person or online
