As a new yoga teacher I remember struggling with imposter syndrome, I struggled with developing sequences, and couldn’t tell if my cues were landing. I wasn’t sure how to bring my personality and unique perspective to my teaching It took a while for me to develop confidence as a teacher. I invested a lot of time in developing my teaching skills as a yoga teacher by attending workshops and conferences along the way.
After 200hr training it felt like I was thrown to the wolves and had to figure everything out on my own. I invested a lot of time in developing my teaching skills as a yoga teacher by attending workshops and conferences along the way.

"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 "
