Instructor Mentorship
Home »
An essential part of becoming an empowered and impactful teacher, is having an inspirational guide of your own. Becoming a teacher is a humbling journey, and Nicole will help you reach your goals through support, accountability and encouragement.
My mentorship program is an opportunity for yoga, barre fitness and mat Pilates instructors to fine tune their skills and deepen their knowledge of the disciplines, through personal study and experiential learning under the guidance of an experienced teacher, business owner and mentor. This 4-6-week program provides a unique experience in continuing education, that can be customized to meet your individual needs.
