Yoga Mentoring

Mentoring is different from attending a class. It's a space for reflection, refinement, and deeper understanding — not just of the practice, but of how yoga lives in our bodies, minds, relationships, and daily lives.

This mentoring is for both yoga students and teachers—whether you are just beginning your journey, returning after a break, or teaching but wanting to deepen your practice and understanding beyond technique and posture.

Mentoring can support you in exploring:

  • How to develop or sustain a personal practice (at home or in studio)

  • Mindfulness, embodiment, and nervous system awareness in yoga

  • Working with pain, injury, or fear in a compassionate way

  • The difference between performing poses versus inhabiting them

  • Integrating yoga with meditation, therapy, or spiritual inquiry

  • The subtle aspects of practice, including breath, attention, and presence

Whether your interest is physical, philosophical, therapeutic, or meditative, mentoring offers an more focused and individualised approach than a group class setting.

For Yoga Students

  • Understanding breath, nervous system, and emotional patterns in practice

  • How to approach Ashtanga or Mysore style in a safe, sustainable way

  • Working gently with pain, tightness, or fear — without force or avoidance

  • Exploring personal meaning, intention, curiosity, and care in practice

  • Exploring how your yoga practice can benefit you both on and off the mat

For Yoga Teachers (or aspiring teachers)

  • Trauma-informed and embodied teaching approaches

  • What it means to hold space—rather than “instruct”

  • Building confidence in guiding rather than correcting

  • Working with students one-to-one (Mysore classes and beyond)

  • Supporting students with anxiety, pain, trauma, or dysregulation

  • The balance of teaching and being a long-life student

  • Ethical considerations, boundaries, and authenticity in teaching

How Mentoring Sessions Work

Sessions are one-on-one and tailored to your needs. They may include discussion, practice refinement, exploration of teaching scenarios, breathwork, somatic awareness or reflective inquiry. No performance. No judgment. Just curiosity, depth, and guidance.

You don’t need to be experienced, flexible, or teaching to be mentored. You only need an interest in developing your practice with a curiosity. If you would like to express interest, explore whether this might be suitable for you, or be placed on a waitlist, you are welcome to get in touch.
