This Forrest Yoga Mentorship Programme spans 12 months and is designed to support and develop yoga teachers who are graduates of any 200hr yoga teacher training.

We begin with an 8-day retreat in the quiet rural village of Castelnau-Magnoac in the Hautes-Pyrenees, South West France

The focus of this mentorship is on developing you as a teacher — honing your skills & uniqueness, building your confidence in working with injuries & hands on assists. AND because this is a residentional, there is more time to explore some of the things I love; bodywork, energetics, anatomy and ceremony with you.  

You also get to discover your relationship with Ceremony on this training and define your version of Ceremony. 

Here's an example of what you'll experience during the course: 
~ Over 45 hours of in-person contact time
~ Plus, 11 group online sessions— 1 each month until Oct 2026
~ Ceremony, meditation & asana lead by Charlie 
~ Teaching practicum and teaching feedback/coaching
~ Hands on assist coaching, as well as new assists
~ Email support from Charlie whenever you need it for 1 year
~ Plenty of opportunities to ask questions

~ 3x 1-2-1 sessions with me (30-45mins per session)

 

A typical training day: 
Each day begins with Ceremony and a deeply nourishing yoga practice. After the morning session, you are on break — your opportunity to soak up the goodness from the morning. 

Afternoons are loaded with several of the following: teaching practicum, sequencing, hands on assists, written processes, personal reflection, guided journeying, ceremony.
