Mentoring

The teacher-student relationship is one of the most powerful and transformative, rooted in a timeless lineage of commitment, service, and great love. My mentors have been instrumental in freeing my inner teacher, and I am humbled by the opportunities to serve emerging teachers. Mentoring involves one-on-one work and support to help you delve deeper into the teachings, methods, and experiences of yoga. From hands-on work with adjustments/assists and class design to chanting practice or sutra studies, mentoring is an opportunity to receive personalized support as you serve your own students. Because each teacher has unique interests and needs, we tailor and structure the work appropriately. If you are interested in mentorship, here are some suggestions and considerations:

• Commit: be realistic about the time and energy you have for mentoring
• Focus: in the infinite sea of yoga, it helps to have a focus. Do you want to work on sequencing? Home practice? Assists?
• Listen: Recording your class can help me give useful feedback and recommendations
• Observe: watching and listening to teachers will help nourish the seeds of your inner teacher
• Serve: anyone I work with has the opportunity to assist in my classes, workshops, and retreats
• Share: teachers are defined by our willingness to share what we have received. As you grow, share. Get out there and teach!
