TI-MYTT

Mentorship Module

The next Mentorship Module starts in April, 2024! Registration is now open!

Are you ready to dive deeper into your self-study? The TI-MYTT Mentorship module is created to support the individualism of your unique practice and journey. ⁠The mentorship modules are designed to support you in the direction you would like to take your wellness career or personal practice. Whether that is through the lens of teaching group classes, working one on one with clients, incorporating new practices into your already existing career or understanding how this practice supports your human experience. The ⁠mentorship is a space held to nerd out and continue to lean into your passions, and figure out your niche when it comes to teaching and living your yoga.

This module is offered as continuing education for students actively enrolled in the 250 Hour Self-paced Trauma-Inclusive MOTA Yoga Teacher Training. If you aren’t sure if you’re ready to dive into the training but are looking for mentorship or to develop your studentship through the guidance of instructors and peers, sign up! There’s not a better time to start than now.

The ⁠TI-MYTT Mentorship Modules are three of 13 modules needed for the completion of the 250HR certification program. You can start with this module or continue on your path through the program. The Mentorship is designed for smaller learning groups to give every student the full experience of the mentorship. Here's the format:⁠

  1. You get 4, 1:1 sessions with your mentor through the course of 3 months⁠.

  2. There will be three lectures from your mentor on their mentorship focus during each of those three months.

  3. There will be three in-studio cohort sessions for just you and your fellow cohort members to complete homework assignments, practice and engage with one another to strengthen independence with the material. ⁠

  4.  Upon signup we will send you a survey so that we can match you with your mentor - with the primary focus of pairing you with your first choice.⁠ We recommend that you sign up sooner rather than later so that you can get your first choice mentor. Priority may be given to early sign ups!
