Yoga teacher mentorship

Often folks ask if we offer Yoga Teacher Trainings at Shala. There’s a long list of reasons why I haven’t offered a TT in a bunch of years, not the least of which is that new teachers so often feel at the end of such a program, totally ill-prepared to teach, and that they’re lacking the confidence they wish they had. But of course, yoga teachers have to start somewhere! Where we really grow is in receiving mentorship. Mentor/mentee relationships have been pivotal in my own development. That very personal, dedicated and loving guidance, that honors wisdom in all it’s myriad forms and which works to coax it out in every possible way… that is the kind of support that has been invaluable on my path, and has allowed me to embody the seat of the teacher fully.

Working in an intimate setting to cultivate the skills necessary to offer expertly delivered teaching is key to our unfolding. Close mentorship, personal guidance, attention to detail… this is what I’d like to offer you: An intimate cohort community looking to expand together with direct, collective, and personal guidance. This group is for you if you’re an active yoga teacher longing to grow and refine your offerings, based on your individual needs and desires. Your unique voice and personal perspective on the Hatha Yoga practice will be honored and cultivated in this work.
