about Mentorship...
Mentorship is about 'see-ership' ~ held within an open curiosity, an appreciation and wonderment about the movements of life and relationships.
Being seen and heard in what energizes your spirit in the ebbs and flows of pulsation, creation and expansion of what you love in life.
A safe space to work with your goals, visions and dreams.
Acceptance and alignment of one's mind, body and soul to explore and celebrate both the resistances and alchemical process of transformation.
Mentorship is custom designed with each individual to facilitate a collaborative support for self-awareness, self-expression/exploration and experimentation with engaging yogic principles/practices.
Mentorship is for anyone...
For the yoga student and/or yoga teacher, mentorship can be the vehicle to inspire passion, light the fire, and sharpen goals as well as a means to understanding how to persevere through obstacles to achieve self-love, wellness and a sense of wholeness.
Beginner yoga students can benefit by building a foundation of practice and confidence, which then can lead to exploring more public yoga classes or a home practice. Intermediate or advanced students may wish to take their practices to the next level yet require some expertise and direction in the areas in which they want to deepen.

As a yoga teacher, sustaining one’s own practices is key to examining the relationship to self and others. Mentorship is a useful mirror to reflect the areas in which we can grow in and become more fully aware of ourselves. Meditation is an encouraged practice during the mentorship program.
Getting started...
The program includes ten one hour private sessions as well as email communication which may include submitting class plans/sequences and receiving feedback, homework assignments, study material, meditation, journaling and how to work with food or healthy lifestyle choices. One of the sessions can include coming to observe and give feedback to one of your yoga classes or submit a video of you teaching a yoga class or a private. It is also very useful to attend some of my public yoga classes to help assist or observe and take notes. I encourage you to take as many of my public classes as possible during the mentorship for your own practice and will often use this environment to emphasize teachings we are working on and demonstrate teaching skills that we are practicing together.
