Mentorship Support NETWORK FOR YOGA TEACHERS
Welcome to your mentorship support network — a community for yoga teachers focused on building a successful business and earning meaningful income. This network is ideal for part-time or full-time yoga teachers who want to expand their reach, connect with like-minded professionals, and grow their business skills.
Through interactive Zoom discussions, you can join a space where sharing is encouraged, whether you actively participate or simply listen and learn. Our sessions create a unique space to discuss challenges, celebrate successes, and receive real-world support from fellow yoga teachers.
This is where community, mentorship, and business growth come together.
Why Mentorship?
In my experience, I have personally felt there is a gap in development, support and feedback in the world of teaching yoga specifically in relationship to business. People often ask if I’ll ever host my own YTT and the answer is a resounding NO!. My passion falls in the gap between completing your YTT and building your yoga business. We don’t talk about the business of yoga often and rarely have the opportunity to connect with other like minded yoga teachers.
My goal is to fill this space and be someone who is there to give you guidance and support through the ups and downs of your business. It can be tough since our peers can also be seen as our direct competitors. It's hard to know what's working, what's not working and staying committed through it all.
This is a multifaceted business of yoga mentorship and support program that allows us, yoga teachers, to connect and discuss the business of yoga.
I believe too many yoga teachers fizzle out and burnout. You have an incredible gift to offer and I want to give you the tools for sustainability and longevity in this industry.
let’s get started
building sustainable businesses
The business of yoga can include such a wide range of topics. In all the workshops I’ve taken on the subject in the past two things have stuck out to me.
They’re often not led by active yoga teachers and the business advice isn’t specific to a heart first, service based business.
The range of topics is so varied and often comes from a corporate business lens that isn’t applicable to this type of industry.
My goal is to fill these two gaps and give you honest advice and real experiences while also empowering you to find your niche and create what works for your business. You can make meaningful income part time or full time in this business if you want. Join the community and start connecting to like minded peers who want the same thing! Let’s make teaching yoga a sustainable career option once and for all!

Client Feedback
Grateful Yogis
THE MOST VALUABLE RESOURCE
“As a new yoga teacher you feel very vulnerable - will they like me, is this sequence to hard or easy, will my playlist resonate with the class and flow with my sequence, who will attend, will I be able to move off my mat, can I memorize my sequence, what if I forget something? Plus a million other questions! Having a mentor like Jaffer during this time was the most valuable resource! While you are able to share your fears with your family and friends, having a mentor who has experienced the same situations is comforting to know you are not alone.”
SUPPORT AND GUIDANCE
“Before starting this program I was feeling very lost, alone and confused with my pursuit of yoga teaching. I had a lot bottling up as a yoga teacher and through working with Jaffer I was able to receive the support and guidance I desperately needed. His support, advice and feedback made me have more faith in this path and in myself as a teacher. I also really loved Jaffer's commitment, dedication, and interest in mentoring me. I really felt like I could ask him anything and never felt embarrassed, stupid or nervous.”
