Mentorship/Apprenticeship Program for 2008 & 2009
This unique program includes practicum, group teaching, observation, assisting, workshops, classes and actual teaching of students. Welcome!
Somewhere along the line you decided to teach yoga. You took some training and now you need help with various aspects of your teaching – like teaching with intention, articulating clear instruction – or maybe you need support and guidance from a caring, well-schooled senior teacher. Either way, this program is for you.
Learn to effectively serve your students as well as your own yoga journey. You’ll receive knowledge of Anusara’s Universal Principles of Alignment – tools to bring more clarity to your classroom – tools that will transform your students’ practices. This program is also designed to help you teach using heart-felt intention to inspire your students. Find the source and find the words to transform your teaching.
There’s a time to go it alone and there’s a time to be nurtured and nourished with technique, compassion and experience. Amber Huttner is a senior certified Anusara Yoga teacher (2001) with over 11 years experience teaching yoga. Her experience includes teaching at studios, resorts, a rehabilitation center, leading national workshops and retreats. Currently she is the owner of Good Life Yoga. Her depth of knowledge, wealth of experience and passion for teaching excellence has made her a favorite of students and teachers alike.
