This is the last training component of the 800-hour Somatic Yoga Therapist Training. Comprised of two modules, that focus on the facilitation of Somatic Yoga Therapy for Individuals and Groups, the Mentorship Practicum is completed in your home community during the Fall and Spring semesters with a combination of group mentoring and 1:1 mentoring sessions, that guide you through navigating the ins and outs of practice, ethical business and marketing, planning and facilitating group work, and networking. This is a mentored soul journey done with very small groups of students only once each year. (These modules can be completed while you are also enrolled in your 300-hour training programs or may be completed the following year.)

"Living the miracle of openness and surrender to my true nature was a unique possibility that this program gave me, finding myself expanded and aware like never before. Working with Stefani is a gift for your self as a person before being a yoga teacher, and a gift for who we are going to help. Every different part in the journey is woven in so deeply with Stefani’s loving heart and her strong vision. Every piece of the journey to build is so precious and perfect next to the other that you cannot resist this beautiful soul. Thank you for holding my hand so strongly and letting me look deeper, everywhere."
