This program is born out of my personal experience and genuine desire to provide the guidance, knowledge, and community that I wish I had when I was starting out as newbie teachers. I know firsthand the value of having a mentor who can offer support, share wisdom, and help shape your path as a yoga professional.
Our Mentorship Program is designed for a diverse range of individuals who share a common passion for deepening their yoga practice and knowledge.
