Specialized Support & Study
For students pursuing individualized Iyengar Yoga Therapy or Mentorship
Teacher Mentoring
Unlike a standard teacher training, mentoring in the Iyengar tradition is a shared journey between student and mentor, involving observation, refinement, study, and ongoing support.
As an apprentice, you’ll explore the nuances of Iyengar Yoga in a way that is both challenging and deeply personal, including:
Careful observation of alignment and technique
Guided refinement of your own practice and teaching skills
Study of yoga philosophy and methodology
Ongoing discussion and feedback tailored to your growth
Apprentices are expected to already attend local classes at Po Toronto.
Iyengar Yoga Therapy
Studio Po offers Iyengar Yoga Therapy in our Toronto studio, through our Modified Practices (MP) program.
This program provides individualized support for students navigating specific physical or mental health concerns, such as back pain, hypertension, digestive issues, or anxiety.
In small-group or one-to-one settings, students are guided through a practice carefully adapted to their current condition and capacity. For many, this becomes a starting point that gradually leads to a more independent practice or a transition into regular classes.
Before joining, students complete a brief intake form to help us understand their needs and ensure that accommodations are safe and effective.
