This yoga teacher mentorship is perfect for you if you are a teacher in the first 5 years of teaching. You will learn how to skilfully bridge the gap between what people expect from vinyasa yoga practice vs the science of how the body moves.

This program will serve you if you are willing to do the personal work of self-inquiry and study, the humbling work of not knowing and not being perfect, and liberating process of exploring body wisdom through biomechanical lenses.

If you have completed a 200-hour training outside of our school, enrolment in the Bridge Program is required. Click here to find out more.

In this mentorship program you will:

Enhance understanding of the principles behind the creative and safe sequencing of vinyasa style yoga classes.
Learn how to integrate strength training with mobility and clarify the similarities and differences between somatics and yoga.
