Jane has been mentoring teachers and trainees for many years now. During the first few years of Yogacampus she mentored small groups of trainees throughout their training. There is a real need for continued support and community for yoga teachers and with this in mind Jane will begin her first 6 month mentoring program in 2020.

Both experienced teachers and trainees can equally feel isolated and challenged in the current climate. It may be that you are teaching challenging populations, that you simply need clarity on boundaries and how to respond to certain questions or perhaps you are struggling to find your teaching voice. During a teaching or study week questions and inner conflicts can  arise and it can be difficult to know how to resolve them and with whom.

A mentoring group can be really helpful as it creates a safe and supportive container in which you can share your ideas and thoughts and be guided not only by an experienced, compassionate yoga teacher and educator but also by the shared experiences of your peers.

Having a mentor support group is essential for yoga teachers as there is currently no supervision system within YTT frameworks, and in most other areas it is essential.
