Teaching yoga is your career, your craft, maybe even your calling, but

Building, growing, and evolving your yoga teaching practice on your own is HARD

(I’m not going to sugar coat it)

Because of all the information available on social media and all the business coaches offering different advice:

You still feel like you don’t have the confidence and clarity in your teaching

You’re overwhelmed with the mountain of information out there…and every possible path you could choose!

You don’t have as many private clients as you want

You feel like you’re doing this alone…everyone else has figured it out, right?

You’re not making the money you need and you think the only solution is to sell digital products

I don’t want that for you, and I know for sure that you don’t either

The Mentor Sessions Sangha is a community of supportive yoga teacher colleagues and friends committed to helping you grow and evolve your career

With that knowledge and support, you could have:

More certainty about what you need to do to maintain and grow your business.
Less anxiety about working privately with clients.
Greater confidence in your knowledge of anatomy and biomechanics.
A container where you can safely ask any question with zero judgment.
A group dedicated to discussing the craft of teaching yoga.
Renewed excitement about the career you first fell in love with!

I’m Francesca Cervero, yoga teacher, yoga teacher’s mentor, and founder of The Mentor Sessions Sangha.

I have been teaching yoga full time since 2005. And most of those years I had a full schedule of 25 private clients a week - with a waiting list - and I did that with no marketing and no social media.

I built my business through word of mouth from my students who had meaningful, positive change through our work together, and it didn’t take long before other yoga teachers were asking me to teach them how to do the same!

So I started mentoring other yoga teachers and helping them build their own yoga teaching businesses. I compiled my private teaching knowledge into a teacher training - now my online course, The Science of the Private Lesson - started a podcast, The Mentor Sessions Podcast, and created a Facebook group that I evolved into what is now the private online community, The Mentor Sessions Sangha.

The Mentor Sessions Sangha is an open, supportive community of yoga teachers growing and evolving their business just like you

Inside the private, online community (NOT on social media) you’ll have access to:

2 Live monthly video Q+A sessions with me and other guest mentors

Access to video replays and audio versions of Q&A sessions in a private podcast feed - making it easy to listen wherever

What community members are saying about the Sangha…

“I love the possibility to ask questions in the forums, and comment others’ questions. The discussions are very interesting and thought provoking. I love the Q&As. I love the teachers’ practices that I recently discovered, and the new community feature is exciting! I feel extremely grateful to be in such a rich and supportive community that is based on the core teachings of yoga: satya, svadyaya, ahimsa….”

— Jenny B.

“The Mentor Sessions Sangha has been such an encouraging space for me as a yoga teacher building my own business. It is a place I can go to for support, questions, and advice. We talk about marketing and business, teaching pedagogy, anatomy, and yoga philosophy. I appreciate being part of a community of teachers who are inquisitive and reflective. It keeps me accountable and pushes me to grow.”

— Rachel

“This is a place where we can be honest about the struggles we’re going through, learn critical lessons from one another, and provide support that you can really only get from someone that understands this career path. I know that when I bring something up, I will be truly listened to and respected.”

— Dara M.

“[Francesca] has created a meeting place for yoga teachers who want to be supported in thinking critically about their teaching. In the Sangha we have deep conversations about everything that comes up as yoga teachers. We do examine our ideas of right and wrong from different points of view. We learn from each other and get to feel seen. Francesca has created a safe environment where people can ask questions. Everyone in the sangha is very respectful and supportive of each other.”

— Chintamani

The Mentor Sessions Sangha is perfect for you if…

✔ You’ve been teaching yoga for a few years

✔ You have a sense of your voice, but you’re not sure exactly how to use it

✔ You’re looking for a community of others like yourself to support your yoga teaching career

✔ You’re ready to commit to your business AND personal growth to take your teaching to the next level (whatever that looks like to you!)

This isn’t a course or curriculum

We don’t follow a rigid formula or standard advice inside the Sangha. Everyone’s teaching and goals look different, and so I believe the guidance for each person should be different as well.

I personally have a wide range of knowledge that I tap into for all my mentoring from teaching and growing a business, to a wide ranging expertise on the human body and its movement patterns, to a deep study of Buddhism and personal spiritual growth.

Inside our monthly Q&A calls, we’ll create a personalized plan to help you find new clients and raise your rates, or talk through a difficult client case - whatever support you need right now is what you’ll get.

You can join the community from anywhere you are
(literally AND metaphorically)

Even if you’re in a different time zone, you won’t miss out on our live call. All Q&A calls are recorded, with video replays added to the online community and audio replays uploaded to a private podcast feed. (All call times are in ET)

My aim as a mentor is always to meet you where you are in your teaching journey (and your life!). The Sangha was created to be a welcoming space with zero judgment, and lots of listening and compassion.

The Mentor Sessions Sangha is the community you crave and the support you need to help you grow your yoga teaching beyond what is possible alone

Inside the Sangha you’ll get…

…the space to ask complex anatomy, biomechanics, and movement science questions…and discuss them with experts

…the chance to teach and receive honest feedback from other yoga teachers

…the support and strategy to raise your rates and find new private clients

…learning beyond just business and marketing
