Mentoring and Support

Helping you grow as a teacher

These are difficult times, where people need the healing practice of yoga more than ever.

However many teachers are feeling overwhelmed and burned out, or have big dreams but aren't sure where to begin. Or maybe you feel like you don't fit within the studio system and are looking for support as an independent teacher.

Our mentoring program can support you in evolving your business, finding your voice as a teacher in class and online and growing your yoga business your own way.

We can help you identify your strengths, find new directions for your business in these challenging times and support you along the way, so you can continue to support your community.

Get Started

Have you finished your teacher training, but aren't sure what's next?

It can feel like a big leap from teaching within a training to launching your own classes out in the world!

It can be particularly challenging starting out as an aerial yoga teacher, since specialised equipment and insurance is required. Jo can help to bridge the gap between teacher training and professional teaching by offering supervised practice sessions, and a beautiful space here at Garden of Yoga to help you grow into a confident and competent teacher. Since these sessions are fully supervised you will be covered by our insurance, and will also receive real time support and valuable feedback.

She can also support established aerial yoga teachers looking for fresh inspiration, sequencing ideas, strategies to make aerial yoga more accessible and to share yoga philosophy within your classes.

Do you want to grow as teacher?

Do you feel there were gaps in your teacher training and you lack the confidence to teach everyone who joins your classes?

Jo can help you plan your yoga, chair yoga and aerial yoga classes so that multiple options are built into your sequence and everyone feels included. Jo has been teaching yoga for over 20 years, and additional training in trauma informed and accessible yoga, and specialises in adapting practice for diverse bodies and needs. She has a depth of knowlege that comes from speaking to leading minds of contemporary yoga culture through nine years of creating The Flow Artists Podcast, and writing her book Eight Limbs of Aerial Yoga: Adapting Practice for Accessibility, Neurodiversity and Physical Support.

Jo has experience leading classes in parks, festivals, online, sub let studio spaces, private homes, council run community programs, corporate workplaces, retreats and founding her studio Garden of Yoga. She can support you in finding the right venue, building your community, planning your classes and even applying for grant funding.

If you are looking to branch out creatively and share yoga in new ways Jo can help you map out the next steps.

How does our program work?

Our mentoring program focuses on helping you identify and develop your strengths as a teacher and support in the areas where you want to cultivate growth.

Our package costs $120 for an initial 60-minute session with Jo which can be in person or online, which is followed up with an action plan with short and long term goals and ongoing support through our private Facebook group. You can decide how many sessions you need, and the frequency.

Limited scholarship places are available to members of marginalised communities and identities with the goal of creating more equity within the yoga community. Please let us know your background and why you would like to work with us.
