Why work with The Yoga Transition?
The Yoga Transition is a yoga mentorship program for beginner or experienced yoga teachers from renowned yoga mentor and practitioner Susan Allen.
Designed to provide you with competency, structure, and a rejuvenated vision to teach with confidence, The Yoga Transition helps you develop a foundation of awareness and wisdom to further your mastery of yoga.
This approach, known as The Yoga Transition Path, transforms your teaching style by helping you to find your own voice, encouraging a holistic yoga practice while also helping you to achieve genuine professional growth.
Experienced teachers know from their own personal practice that yoga is so much more than a physical practice. We hold true to our view of yoga as a physical, mental and spiritual practice, weaving this into our teachings and encouraging our teachers to see yoga as a vehicle for change and positivity within ourselves and therefore within our communities.
At The Yoga Transition, we emphasise the development of the breathing and meditation elements of the yoga practice. This is one of the key methods by which teachers can take their practice beyond just the physical realm.

How we can help you to develop your yoga teaching
Our goal at The Yoga Transition is to help improve the quality of yoga being taught worldwide. By sharing our knowledge of the yoga practice as well as the teaching art form we help yoga teachers refine their craft, becoming leaders in their community, while furthering their own yoga teaching ambitions.
Regardless of whether you currently run your own yoga studio or not, we can help you to develop the structure and skills required to be successful in your own right, amplifying your yoga teaching efforts, while helping you to refine your own personal yoga practice.
One of the fundamental characteristics of yoga is awareness of and connection to the wider world. The Yoga Transition has a strong community focus, and is creating a global community for like-minded yoga teachers to connect and share knowledge, no matter where they are located.
Yoga is a lineage practice. Much of what we have learned is the result of discipline and insight from the great Indian masters and gurus. At The Yoga Transition we strive to teach a practice with the integrity and heart of these precious teachings. Each of us is so very lucky to find ourselves on this yogic path.
We take an open-minded, multidisciplinary approach to yoga
While some yoga practitioners have an exclusive view of yoga, only studying and practising one particular style, we take an inclusive approach, encouraging teachers to keep learning and exploring new boundaries of their practice. Each of us is an individual and as we develop our craft it’s a precious reward teaching from that place of authenticity and freedom.
Our master teacher Susan Allen is a student herself of many yoga disciplines and practices, and believes the real measure of one’s progress is in one’s daily conduct. These practices are practices of transformation, and when cultivated we then take this wisdom and clarity off the mat and off the cushion into our daily lives.
