Information on Mentoring
Report
It includes the guidance given between teacher and trainee or student, as well as the ongoing professional and personal guidance necessary for all yoga teachers, at all levels of seniority and experience, as part of the continuing journey of yoga.
Formal and informal mentoring were an integral part of yoga teacher training, ongoing teacher education and support in traditions that relied on 'apprenticeships' with one-one relationships or in communities or ashrams.Now that teacher training occurs more in courses and teachers are increasingly teaching in isolation or in small studio-groups we need to expand the fabric from which teachers can draw support and seek advice.
