By considering how teachers can maintain appropriate boundaries with students, create truly inclusive classes, and deal with common obstacles and ethical issues, this guide explores the reality of teaching yoga day-to-day and helps teachers avoid burnout.
 
With reflective and experiential exercises throughout, the book will help even experienced teachers to amplify their understanding of what it means to hold rich and meaningful classes by creating different lenses through which they can view distinct situations. The intention is to invite, offer possibilities, suggest and signpost, without prohibiting or setting defined boundaries.
 
Emphasising the need for yoga teachers to know about more than alignment and sequencing, The Yoga Teacher Mentor accompanies the reader through the rich, complex and rewarding process of teaching yoga.
Introduction. 1. Where Have You Come From, Where Are You Now and Where Do You Want to Go?. 2. Setting Out. 3. Skills and Tools. 4. Ethics, Boundaries and Right Relationship. 5. Keeping it Safe - Creating Generative Spaces. 6. The Art of Relating (Or 'I Have a Difficult Student'). 7. Including Every Body. 8. Experienced Teachers. 9. Going Forward.
This wonderful book is rich with guidance & practical advice for new & trainee teachers, & is equally inspiring for experienced teachers. Jess has woven together many areas of expertise in a generous, warmly presented, very accessible way. It's like having Jess, with all her years of experience, in the room with you as you practice, plan or teach. Highly recommended.
