Yoga Mentorship
and teacher support
Who is Yoga Mentoring for?
I believe it takes a minimum of 10 years of Yoga teaching to learn how to teach besides having a dedicated personal yoga and meditation practice. I am happy to help anyone along their path and as one of my teachers in India said, we should share what we know otherwise we are no better than thieves. I offer my Yoga coaching service to both new and experienced Yoga teachers and students.
I know how it feels not to have a mentor and to feel that you are alone without the guidance of a senior teacher. Are you a new Yoga teacher feeling unsure of yourself? Are you in a teacher training program and intuit that something is missing? Do you need more personal attention? Do you need help with designing a therapeutic class? Contact me with a description of your training or practice and what you hope to gain and we will design a program for YOUR needs.
“The mastery of yoga must not be measured simply by the ability to master the techniques…but how it influences our day to day living, how it enhances our relationships, and how it promotes clarity and peace of mind.”
What You Get from Yoga Mentoring
I act as your sounding board and mentor. You can ask me anything related to your personal practice or teaching.
Using the skills I’ve developed through 20+ years of practice and teaching I will help you work through the things that trip you up. My approach is as down-to-earth and no-nonsense as it is spiritual and intuitive, but know that I may tell you things that I believe you need to hear, not necessarily what you want to hear. I guide the work sequentially and purposefully but also encourage your spontaneous interactivity and personal insights so that together we can incubate concepts and ideas in order to investigate the profundity of these traditions.
To join my mentorship program you must be able to make a true commitment to trust my process that is very different from the standard Yoga teacher training.
I believe in quality, not quantity. In my Yoga tradition, the student studied with one teacher for years, just as Krishnamacharya learned from Ramamohan Brahmachari and Desikachar learned from his father. In the "old school" Yoga way it is very important for a Yoga practitioner to choose a teacher who can guide them properly -- a teacher who has been practicing for many years and who has come from a lineage.

What people are saying about Metta Yoga: Mind-Body Education® Mentoring
“This would refreshingly benefit the way yoga is now being “mentored” in the USA. One-on-one, really and truly working with the student of yoga. Real mentoring. The real deal!”
“There is so much I am not learning in my yoga teacher training program I don’t even know where to start. If I hadn’t had you as my first teacher I don’t think I would be aware of how much this program is lacking. Thank you!”
