Mentoring & Post Graduate Yoga Practice

Mentoring & Post Graduate Yoga Practice

Overview

With over 30 years of practice, 25 years teaching, and 12 years of teacher training experience including mentoring, Flo is now a registered mentor with Yoga Australia. Mentoring is a required part of many teacher trainings. You can use these sessions towards the mentoring hours required to complete your Level 1 or 2 registered Yoga Australia teacher training. Or, as a post graduate student, deepen your expertise, answer questions, and gain required CPD points as a registered Yoga Australia teacher.

Specialities:

  • Teaching of asana in intelligent steps-modifying asanas, use of props, adjusting skills
  • Teaching of pranayama-progression, working with prana in asana, pranayama practice yoga as therapy
  • Meditation techniques Yoga Nidra-practice, mantra practice
  • I am happy to do either open or curriculum-based sessions.

Mentoring sessions can take many forms:

  • Small group classes are offered to Post Graduate students in which we practice together, enhance our asana and pranayama, refresh our prop use and teaching techniques, and afterwards discuss the practice with time for questions.
  • Private sessions of a practical nature which can focus on anything that you are having difficulty with in teaching or in practice
  • Private sessions (face to face or via zoom, phone or email) which may be simply to ask questions and receive ideas about any issues that may have come up as a teacher
  • Assisting in classes or on retreats where you get ‘on the job’ training.

Exploring The Hindu Deities and Bhakti Yoga

Bhakti yoga is one of the branches of yoga. It is offered by the sage Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras as one of the ways one can achieve full liberation

• Sutra 1.23

• Ishvarapranidhanadva

• ‘Or by devotion to god (asamprajnata samadhi can be obtained.)’

1. Ganesha

Ganesha is the Lord of Beginnings

• It is Ganesha’s blessing that is invoked at every passage of life (birth, marriage, new business endeavours and death) and it is Ganesh whom we invoke before any other God is approached

• For yogis, he is the God who can assist us to gain freedom from the allure of the impressions of the senses

• He stands at the doorway to the spirit world, as a guardian to the causal realm, and it is he to whom we must apply for entrance

• Ganesh is known as the remover of obstacles, and is well loved by Hindus of all philosophical positions

• He is known as the giver of boons, and for his compassion
