Congratulations and welcome! You’ve just completed your Yoga Teacher Training and are about to embark on your new path; becoming a Yoga Teacher. How wonderful!
For some of you it’s at this point where your YTT bubble has just burst and you are hit with the reality of actually teaching Yoga classes to the paying public, yikes!
Often, due to the nature of this important and often vulnerable position, good ole ‘Impostor Syndrome’ sets in and you may feel a bit like a fraud, or be asking yourself if you’re cut out for this, lacking in confidence, self belief and it may even inhibit your ability to move forward.
There is also the added pressure of finding a teaching position due to the abundance of new and experienced Yoga Teachers out there these days.
This all plays a part in forgetting why you decided to be a Yoga Teacher in the first place, and may overshadow the purity in your desire to share Yoga with the community.
I am a level 2 registered Yoga Teacher with Yoga Australia and have been teaching Yoga/Meditation for nearly 10 years. I completed my YTT 1120 hr advanced diploma in 2011 from which I then opened my own backyard studio and begun my teaching journey.
I currently own ‘Lavana Yoga’ Mt Eliza and ‘The Quiet Space’ Mornington where I teach ‘Learn to Meditate’ Courses.
I too have been effected by all these challenges which is why I am extremely passionate about helping Yoga Teachers find their confidence, their purpose, their voice and their love of sharing Yoga without the unnecessary pressures and burdens so many Yoga teachers endure.
This occurs if you’ve been teaching for months or even years. There is always space to grow within your teaching. We never stop being students.
I have been asked by Yoga teachers for years to offer advice, feedback and mentor-ship which is why I’ve decided to make this a reality.
My Mentor-ship is available to all Yoga teachers within our community.
My mission is to help others be the light-houses we so desperately need in our society.
May you never stop asking – why?
I look forward to hearing from you.
Appointments are made directly with me (Lisa) on 0418 602 475 and payments made via the Lavana Yoga App. (under ‘buy’ – ‘Yoga Classes’ – ‘1 hr 20 mins MENTOR-SHIP’).
Investment: $120 per session
I look forward to chatting with you,
Namaste,
