Mentoring

What is mentoring?

Mentoring is modeled after the historic yoga teacher and student relationship. An ongoing mentor relationship can be extremely helpful for new yoga instructors who are learning to hone their craft and to develop their teacher’s voice as well as ministers, therapists, counselors, and church leaders who are looking to integrate yoga, meditation, or prayer practices into their ministries.

Together we will…work together to address your specific needs and concerns by evaluating your specific goals, and creating a plan that you can carry-out on your own until we meet again.

What people are saying…

I connected with Kelly in search of mentorship and spiritual direction to guide my business. Kelly had great questions that helped me to answer why I do what I do. Professionally, she took the time to understand my goals. And provided resources, actionable items, and accountability helping me achieve my goals.

Kelly has a gift for searching out the fingerprint of God in all of creation, both seen and unseen. Her passion for the Bible, yoga philosophy and practice, and wellness body+mind+spirit is contagious and no matter how esoteric or heady the topic is, Kelly breaks it down in a way that’s approachable.

She is a joy to work with and learn from and leaves her students and peers more inspired than when she found them!

Caroline Williams, Founder of The Yoga Abbey

I have had Kelly as a guest teacher at my retreats for two years now — and looking forward to continuing to collaborate! Kelly seeks to understand the vision of the retreat and really prays into how she can best contribute content under the given theme.

She always arrives well researched, prepared, and professional while remaining approachable and relatable. She has a remarkable gift of being able to distill volumes of esoteric and/or mystical teachings down into digestible and practical lessons that her students can understand and appreciate. Kelly always seeks the Holy Spirit’s guidance and tailors her content to her audiences.
