Illuminate 1:1

Personalised mentorship for dedicated yoga teachers to continue their education, refine their teaching skills and deepen their understanding — guided through the wisdom and refined methodologies of the Anusara lineage.

Curated for yoga teachers who are ready to refine their teaching skills and deepen their understanding of the art of teaching through the lineage of Anusara Yoga. Whether you are early in your teaching journey or have been teaching for many years, this mentorship offers a space to study, question, refine and evolve your practice as a teacher.

Through the refined methodologies of Anusara — a lineage-based tradition rooted in the non-dual Tantric philosophy of Kashmir Shaivism — we’ll explore the deeper nuances of teaching yoga, from biomechanics and intelligent sequencing to skillful cueing, theming and the art of creating meaningful, transformative experiences for your students.

Begin Your Journey

Your 200-hour training is the beginning, not the end.

It’s a gateway into the vast and rich landscape of yoga, and an invitation to continue learning and sharing these teachings in service.

Together, we’ll explore how to move beyond simply leading an asana class towards offering a holistic, intentional practice that weaves movement, philosophy, breath and awareness — creating the conditions for the deeper teachings aof yoga to land, resonate and become embodied. In doing so, your classes can become opportunities for integration, insight and meaningful transformation.

Follow the Path Deeper

— Charlene Chandler, Yoga & Barre Teacher

“My experience of mentorship was magical. Lauren created a beautiful shift in my ability to take on the roll as a student, honoring exactly where I was at and creating a loving space to build on that foundation. Through her guidance I learned how to connect deeper with my students to create a practice that flows more intelligently through language refinement, proper alignment, body mechanics, and creative theming.

Lauren is a teacher who knows the value of studentship at all stages and I cherish the time we have spent together.”

— Zara Rush, Yoga Teacher

“One of the most meaningful and unique aspects of this mentorship has been the depth of attention and accountability that Lauren brings. Her integrity and the way she embodies and holds the teachings are deeply inspiring. She has a beautiful ability to create a space that feels both supportive and challenging, gently inviting me to look deeper, grow, and step more fully into my own authentic way of being. I’m deeply grateful for the growth this mentorship has opened up for me.”

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Mentorship offers something that a group training often cannot: intimate, personalised attention over time.

    Our work together extends beyond our 1:1 sessions. You’ll be invited into contemplative and practical work between sessions, creating the space to integrate what you are learning and bring it directly into your teaching.

    I offer support, guidance, encouragement and accountability, while you remain an active participant in your own growth. The real transformation happens when what we explore together begins to become embodied through your practice and teaching.

    As your mentor, I draw from over 15 years of teaching experience to help you recognise where you are, identify what is ready to develop and take meaningful steps towards the next phase of your journey.

  • I have been fortunate to experience the power of intimate mentorship with two of my dearest teachers throughout my own journey. That experience has deeply shaped how I teach and mentor others.

    This mentorship is a co-creation. While each session has a clear intention and follows a thoughtfully designed curriculum, there is also space to work intuitively with what is most alive and relevant for you in the moment.

    Through the lens of the Anusara lineage, we’ll explore refined teaching methodologies alongside your own creativity, inquiry and self-discovery.

    You’ll receive guidance, teachings and feedback, while being encouraged to develop your own discernment and authentic voice as a teacher.

    At the completion of the six sessions, you’ll record a 60-minute class incorporating the methodologies explored throughout our time together. I’ll review your class and offer specific, personalised feedback and recommendations for your continued development.

  • It is for you if you:

    • Want to deepen your teaching through the Anusara lineage and its refined methodologies.

    • Are looking to refine your skills in areas such as sequencing, biomechanics, cueing, theming and teaching methodology.

    • Want to develop greater confidence, discernment and authenticity in your teaching.

    • Feel ready to move beyond simply leading classes and explore how to offer more intentional, holistic and meaningful practices.

    • Feel stagnant, uninspired or uncertain about your next step and would value personalised guidance.

    • Are an experienced teacher who knows that every incredible teacher is an incredible student and wants to continue learning and evolving!

  • This mentorship is designed primarily for those who have completed at least a 200-hour integrated Yoga Teacher Training, or a minimum of 100 hours of specialised movement training if your work is primarily as a movement facilitator.

    If you haven't completed a formal teacher training but feel strongly that this mentorship is right for you, you're welcome to enquire and we can explore whether it is a suitable fit.

    If you are not a teacher or movement facilitator and are looking to invest in your personal practice and growth, please explore the Mentorship for Practitioners offering.

  • Not at all. This mentorship is open to teachers at different stages of their journey, from those relatively new to teaching through to experienced teachers looking to refine and deepen their craft.

    What matters most is your curiosity, commitment to learning and willingness to remain a student.

    Your experience may shape where we begin, but the mentorship is personalised to meet you where you are and support where you are ready to grow.

  • The mentorship is designed to unfold over approximately six months, allowing enough space between sessions to integrate, practice and bring the teachings directly into your classes.

    This slower pace is intentional. Refining your teaching is not simply about gathering more information — it is about integrating what you learn until it becomes embodied in how you teach.

  • Yes. The mentorship can take place virtually or in person, depending on location and availability.

    The depth of the work doesn't depend on being in the same physical space. The 1:1 format allows us to work closely together wherever you are.

  • The full investment for the six-session mentorship is €2,250, or six monthly payments of €375.

  • The intention is not for the mentorship to simply end when the final session is complete.

    Your final teaching practicum will give you clear feedback and next steps to continue exploring, practising and refining your teaching beyond our time together.

    The deeper invitation is to take what you have received and continue the journey as your own student — allowing your teaching to keep evolving through practice, inquiry and continued study.
