Confident Teaching Starts Here

Even the best 200 and 300-hour teacher trainings have their limits.

My mentorship program gives you the opportunity to explore ideas, techniques, and real-world applications that go beyond what most 200 or 300-hour trainings have time to cover. It’s a chance to grow your knowledge in a supportive, interactive setting—one that honors where you’ve been and removes obstacles to even greater success.

And in a time when so many are seeking clarity and connection, there’s a growing need for teachers who can offer an inspiring vision and lead with wisdom and purpose.

My one-on-one mentorship program will help you:

  • Integrate Philosophy: Learn to incorporate yoga wisdom into your classes so it feels relevant, accessible, natural, and inspiring.

  • Improve Sequencing: Design harmonious asana sequences with intelligent structures and clear transitions.

  • Expand Horizons: Guide meditations and visualizations that express the deeper purpose of yoga practice.

  • Communicate Authentically: Articulate your unique teaching perspective without resorting to gimmicks or commercial fluff.

  • Build True Confidence: Move beyond “imposter syndrome” by grounding your teaching in knowledge and experience.

This mentorship is a space where critical thinking is encouraged, professional development is supported, and personal transformation unfolds.

Working with Hari really has been one of the best experiences I have ever had with a yoga teacher.

He invites us to be engaged with the content while having his support along the way. If I got stuck with something, Hari helped me reframe it and see it differently in a way that made so much sense.

He also has a great sense of humor, so classes with him feel very light and inspiring.

How it works

This mentorship offers six live interactive 90-minute online sessions, three 60-minute pre-recorded classes, and continuous email support.

We’ll begin by looking at how your relationship with yoga has evolved—on the mat, in your studies, and in your life. Together, we’ll explore where you are now, where you want to go, and what obstacles might be holding you back from offering the full depth of yoga—including asana, philosophy, and spiritual insight—to an ever-growing following of committed practitioners.

Throughout the process, you’ll gain clarity and confidence in how to integrate these elements into your classes in a way that feels right for you.

This isn’t about learning scripted sequences or memorizing philosophical soundbites; it’s about removing obstacles to realizing the full expression of your role as a teacher.

As the program progresses, we’ll focus on helping you translate that inner clarity into outer skill so you can become a magnet for the practitioners who are looking for what you have to offer and guide your students through practices that are both grounded and transformative.

By the end of the program, you’ll feel empowered to offer a complete yoga experience—rooted in higher knowledge, shaped by personal realization, and delivered with confidence.
