Amplifying Your Impact as a Yoga Teacher

On Monday I taught the first of four classes in my one month Mentor’s Course for Yoga Teachers and it was so much fun I can hardly wait till next Monday comes around so I can teach again. We have a great group of teachers from all over connecting via the wonders of the web and teleconferencing technology and already there is a real buzz around the content we are sharing. I really love the enthusiasm and excitement that occurs when a group of like minded folks get together to share what they know with the intention to grow. It’s a lot of fun and everyone comes away from it inspired to take it to the next level.

Webs of Connection & Support

Yesterday I brought my teacher Cate Stillman on for a bonus call so she could share what she has learned being both a yoga teacher and a holistic practitioner for over a decade. Cate has created a successful business that is guided by a meaningful core message of personal and planetary health and is one of my most influential mentors in this field. She is a great force for change and seems to have an inexhaustible amount of energy which I believe is due in part to the fact that she is doing what she is passionate about, engaging in the conversations she wants to be having with people who want to hear her message, and making a living doing it.

I know so many fabulous yoga teachers and healers that have so much of value to offer the world who are not getting there basic needs met financially, not connecting to the students/clients they most want to work with, and are burning out as a result. I truly want to see that change and my Yoga Mentor’s Course is my offering in support of that change as it pains me to see brilliant teachers give up simply because they don’t have the resources or the support they need to be able to leverage their impact within their communities.

I am already planning my next session of this course to include more work with other guest teachers who are leaders in the field and if you are a yoga teacher that wants to be part of the next round please sign up for my newsletter so you can stay posted.

I’ll be heading to Whistler for the next week to play in the snow with my family and am otherwise enjoying some down time so won’t be as active on my blog for the next couple weeks but I’ll leave you with this recording of my chat with Cate Stillman on connectivity, finding your joy, and sharing your vision as a yoga teacher.
