When I first started teaching yoga, I remember feeling overwhelmed. I struggled with imposter syndrome, second-guessed every sequence, and wondered constantly whether my cues were landing. I wasn’t sure how to express my voice, my personality, or the unique perspective I wanted to bring to the mat.
Bit by bit, through trial, error, and a lot of heart, I built my confidence. One thing became clear quickly: I needed to invest deeply in myself if I wanted to grow. So I did.
For almost a decade now, I’ve been committed to my craft, not just by teaching, but by continually learning, refining, and evolving. That dedication shows up in the classrooms, conferences, and trainings I’ve immersed myself in over the years, and it shapes every way I support new teachers today.

My strong commitment to ongoing professional development, including:
2023 Art of Transformation Leadership, The Northern Edge
2022 SUP Instructor Training, PaddleFit Ottawa

I genuinely love coaching and supporting women ready to step into their own unique leadership as yoga teachers & supporting them to build their business.
Through coaching & workshops, you’ll have my full support, encouragement, guidance, and the tools I wish I had when I first started.
"When I finished my 200hr YTT I had so many ideas for classes, but honestly didn’t feel ready to teach. It was overwhelming to imagine teaching outside of the safe space we had created within our YTT group. Sylvie’s mentorship gave me the confidence to put myself out there and start teaching. She met me where I was at and gave me hands-on, practical advice that got me out of my head and in front of a class. She breaks everything down into manageable steps so that you can truly find your voice as a teacher. Her laid back, easy going approach empowered me to step outside my comfort zone and trust in my abilities - which I often doubted. I am eternally grateful for Sylvie and her mentorship, it’s everything a new teacher needs and more. I’ve not only started teaching but have really grown and flourished with her guidance” Erika, Hatha Yoga, SUP Yoga, and Yoga Nidra Teacher with Rebel Soul "
