Advanced Yoga Teacher Training
Professional yoga teachers benefit from collaborative spaces for further self improvement. Take all you’ve learnt from your years of yoga teaching to the next level with one of our yoga mentorship options.
Mentorship for experienced and advanced yoga teachers
Have you been sharing the sacred teachings of yoga with your students for some time? Do you have the support you need to take your yoga business to the next level?
Even professional yoga teachers require support from their peers. Our mentorship program nurtures advanced yoga teachers towards master teacher status and provides you with the tools you need to take your career forward.
Our objective is to help you explore new ways of developing your practice and your teaching. We have successfully achieved this by creating a community for connection and collaboration.
How can I advance my yoga teaching?
Our mentorship program will cover the following key topics:
- How to teach a truly holistic practice within the framework of the 8 limbs thereby moving the focus beyond just a physical practice – this offers the promise of a truly transformative practice for your clients
- How to develop an authentic teaching style by drawing on your personal practice and life experiences
- Learn a structured framework to plan classes and creatively thread meditation, mindfulness, pranayama, and yogic philosophy throughout the practice
- Gain confidence in how to design themed sequences including those with an anatomical approach – when we understand the fundamental biomechanics in specific poses we are able to teach more intelligently and effectively
- How to cue effectively without demonstrating so you can be more interactive with your students, including purposeful hands-on assists
- How to respect the physiology of breathing and understand its significance within the asana practice. Take your understanding of breathing way beyond the general instructions of “Inhale, Exhale.”
- Develop a strategy for progressing from the superficial to the subtle both within your own practice as well as in your teaching content
- How to run a yoga studio, organise retreats, workshops, and immersions
- How to develop your yoga teaching into a successful business.
Join a community
We all thrive in the company of our peers. By the very nature of teaching yoga, teachers are often isolated with minimal interaction with other yoga teachers. In this environment, improving and maturing your craft can be difficult as you lack opportunities to connect and learn.
That’s where a structured mentorship environment can help.
Our mentorship program works to support you through this rewarding stage of your journey as an advanced yoga teacher. We invite professional yoga teachers across the globe to collaborate, connect, and master the art of teaching yoga, under the collaborative guidance of experienced mentor Susan Allen.
The value of mentorship
Direct feedback and support throughout your yoga journey is integral for refining your teaching and elevating you to master teacher status. We partner with you to honestly evaluate, collaborate, and innovate your teaching to help you reach your professional goals.
Under the wings of our experienced master teacher Susan Allen you will:
- Dive deeper into yogic philosophy
- Receive personalised training with a master teacher
- Put all your knowledge into practice with professional counsel
- Reflect on your experience and ask questions about topics of interest
- Mature your craft into a flourishing yoga business.
Why consider mentorship?
Mentoring with a master teacher provides you with a clear path to professional development. You will receive personalised guidance on topics ranging from your personal practice, to your teaching skills, to how to move forward with your yoga career.
Our master teacher Susan Allen has over two decades of yoga practice, teaching, and guidance, and credits her most meaningful growth to the gift of mentoring from the world-class master teachers she has been fortunate enough to study with over the years.
Susan has run multiple yoga studios, teacher trainings, immersions, and retreats, and brings all of this experience to her mentoring. Harnessing her practical and technical skillset, she understands and teaches yoga pragmatically, creating a safe and collaborative space for personal development. She disseminates what she has learnt in easy to digest modules which cover both personal and professional growth goals.
Susan has been practising meditation for 35 years and has a wealth of knowledge to share about different styles of meditation, from traditional vedic meditation to Tibetan Buddhist practices. She has a keen interest in guiding teachers how to incorporate the practice of meditation into their asana classes.
