The Guru/Disciple relationship has been around since Vedic times. While I’m not making any claims to be your Guru, it can be difficult to find a teacher you like who will take you under her wing. I will give you that ‘special attention’ that you need for your personal growth as a student and teacher of yoga.

I often meet practitioners who yearn for a spiritual path, a meaningful yoga practice and an authentic life. Young teachers often feel like they’re swimming in uncharted waters. Maybe you’ve just finished a Yoga Teacher Training and not sure what to do next? You’ve spent time and money on trainings and workshops, but still don’t have the confidence to teach. It can be challenging to find a balanced lifestyle teaching yoga where you are paid what you’re worth.

You need someone who is doing what you want to do. And who can help you achieve your goals to become the kind of teacher you want to be with the career you’d like to have. A bespoke mentorship program, will give you ‘special attention’ to find your voice, step into your power and become an extraordinary yoga teacher.

In a nutshell, teachers study asana technique (specific to various ‘families of asana’ with me and then create short video (shot on your smartphone) teaching what you learned in class, focusing on verbal cues and demonstration skills. I will send you a detailed assessment, breath by breath, that points out your strengths, where you could improve, as a voice recording that you can use during self-practice to further embody the techniques and grow in your personal your practice. The process helps you to build asana vocabulary, structure vinyasa sequences and, finally, teach a yoga class.

If you are a yoga practitioner with no ambition to teach, you can study asana technique and work on specific areas of your practice where you feel you need better technique. Or develop a Pranayama or Meditation practice, study Mudras and the subtle energy body, yoga philosophy, or spiritual practice.

I’ve taught 21 Yoga Teacher Training programs, and as many international yoga retreats and workshops. I take people on spiritual tours in the Himalayas – Bhutan, Nepal and India – where we practice and study yoga philosophy ‘On the Road’ within the cultural context of living Tantra. I have a wealth of knowledge and experience about yoga. I have the ideal ‘blessed’ yoga life. And I’m deeply grateful for the richness and texture of my life. I can help you find your true dharma. At the very least, I can help you find Sanity in your life and a yoga practice that will sustain it.

Yoga is an ancient science that uses the body and breath to penetrate the mind and liberate us from suffering. Yoga is the path to enlightenment – Moksha.
While there are many different authentic paths of Hatha yoga, we believe that they merge into ONE essential teaching that uses the body and the breath to liberate ourselves from suffering.
Asana gives you freedom physically from illness and disease.
Pranayama frees you from your regular breath and makes the pranic body vibrant and subtle.
Meditation prepares an unstable and distracted mind for the inner limbs of yoga.
I aim to give you the highest skills possible to teach and reveal the spiritual path underlying the practice so you can glimpse your true nature – Purusha (pure consciousness.)

It’s important to be ‘real’ and live the yogic reality – and to take the practice off the mat, integrate the knowledge into your life and share it with others.
Teaching yoga should not be just a career move. It should be a sincere calling deep within your heart. It requires dedication, discipline and years of continuous practice. You must also have a true desire to serve others in order to communicate to your students the true essence of yoga. Finding your ‘inner’ dharma and establishing yourself as a teacher is a journey of many steps nurtured by your own practice. Know your heart’s desire, find your voice, step into your power and become the extraordinary yoga teacher you’re meant to be.
