What is the Mentorship Program?

Let us hold your hand and encourage you along the way as you start your journey of being the most amazing Kids Yoga teacher and yoga business entrepreneur!

The Mentorship Program is designed to help you put everything you have learned with Rainbow Yoga into practice and share the Rainbow love and magic far and wide.

We truly believe that by sharing life lessons and wisdom through experiential learning with the next generation can positively change the world, and we want you to be a part of this change with us!

This program is open to all graduates of the Level 1 or 2 Rainbow Kids Yoga and the Rainbow Yoga 200/300 Hour Training program and is designed to be completed within 6 months.

How Does It Work?

The Rainbow Kids Yoga Business & Teaching Mentorship Program is a 6-month distance-learning practicum that is custom fit for each person depending on their needs, goals, gifts, and opportunities. 

You choose your start date and complete the program in your own community, but you are far from alone!

You will have a Mentor (an RKY experienced graduate with a thriving yoga business) who will guide and support you through monthly Zoom calls AND you have the ongoing support of the rest of the RKY Mentorship family, including past graduates of the program and Mentees from around the world who are growing and evolving in the program, just like you! 

The Mentorship Program Challenges You To

The Mentorship Program Challenges You To:

1. Practice and embody fundamental Rainbow Kids Yoga principles while gaining experience teaching and finding your own unique style. 

2. Discover and manifest your intentions, desires, and potential while building momentum as a children’s yoga professional/business in your community. 

3. Create and fortify connections in your community while cultivating simple and smart business practices.

4. Study, explore and create valuable resources to support and inspire you and others in the areas of planning, teaching and managing your classes, employing simple secrets to personal and professional success, and exploring karma, service, and mindfulness. 

5. The Rainbow Kids Yoga Mentorship Program is an intense program involving lots of hard work, but it will pay off as you gain the confidence, experience, and practical tools necessary to make Children's Yoga your fun and enjoyable livelihood.

6. Here, you will dig deep and work hard to reveal and share your unique gifts and approach to sharing yoga with the world. You will have our guidance along the way and access to a lot of amazing resources, but ultimately the final result will not be served to you on a silver platter, it will be your own achievement!

Overview

During their first month, all Mentees begin planning and teaching classes in accordance with the Rainbow Kids Yoga way, which means FUN, CREATION, & CONNECTION! Also, through a variety of creative journaling assignments, the first month reveals how the program can best serve the individual. At the end of month 1, you and your Mentor determine which projects will be the best fit for you, modify them accordingly, and together you create a timeline for completion.  

Each month thereafter you will work on your chosen projects and will have a couple of monthly assignments released to you one month at a time, plus the ongoing adventures of planning, teaching and reflecting on your classes, inventing and sharing new yoga poses and games, and connecting with and building your local community.

All of your work will be delivered, shared and received with love by your Mentor and the global RKY Mentorship family through our online teaching platform, which is accessible only to Mentors, Mentees, and Alumni. 

There, you will be supported and inspired while in turn supporting and inspiring others on their journey, sharing experiences, asking questions, engaging in lively discussions and caring for each other all along the way.

Meet your Mentors:

Components

There are five main components to the program and a variety of assignment possibilities for each. Each assignment has elements of one or more of these components, and Mentees explore each component to some extent in their custom program.

These components are:

• Teaching
• Research
• Invention
• Business
• and of course, FUN!!

The teaching component consists of planning, teaching and reflecting on 2 classes per month. Through this, you will gain experience in creating and teaching kids, family and community classes and events for the different ages and abilities and emerge a more capable, confident and competent teacher. 

In the research component, you will explore our favourite resources; books and articles written by spiritual leaders or inspiring professionals that will widen your perspective, deepen your understanding, and inform your teaching and business philosophy and practices.

In the invention component, you will unearth your own unique yoga, creating new poses, games, flows and resources, adding new surprises to this eternally evolving art!

And, you can’t be a teacher if you don’t have students, so in the business component, you will discover and explore tools and practices to develop and grow as a children’s yoga professional or presence in your community so that you have continued opportunities to teach and grow.

"My experience so far with Rainbow Kids Level 2 Training has been amazing! My mentor Jamie has given me great guidance and yet on occasions a gentle push to work things out on my own. My class sizes have grown and I am only halfway through the program. I am feeling much more confident and prepared in my business achieving things I never thought possible. A community that encourages you to grow yourself in a supportive environment of mentors and mentees."

“Thank you so much for the opportunity to participate in your program.  I learned a lot and grew professionally and socially over the past several months.  As I went through the monthly tasks, not only was I given tools to find my own teaching style, but I was also encouraged to deepen my personal practice as well.  We grow a lot when we are gently pushed out of our comfort zones.  The activities in the program allowed me to overcome my shyness and widen my network so I can achieve my goal of showing that yoga is for everyone. I am also thankful for the support system that being part of the program has created for its participants.  It's really inspiring to hear words of encouragement from teachers all over the world through Facebook and Ruzuku.  My monthly calls with Vanessa are always full of words of wisdom and positive energy that motivate me during the course of this 6 month program and beyond.”

How is the program customized for me?

This is definitely not a cookie cutter program; it is unique in that it is custom fit for each person depending on your goals, gift, opportunities, and location in the world. The first month is designed to help you envision your ideal life and business, asking you to dig deep and dream big so that you can come into alignment with what you truly desire to create. This work will lay the foundation for the direction you choose for your course. Your mentor will guide and support you through this decision, and together you will determine which track best suits your vision and create a timeline for completion. Each track offers many project options to choose from and customize just for you.  Whether you are just starting out or have already been teaching and running a business for some time, Level 2 is about getting clarity about your vision, gaining confidence in your unique teaching style, and serving your community while growing personally and professionally.

In the second month, you will begin to prepare professionally and in month 3 you will hone in on building your online presence to stretch your reach! All along the way you will be expanding your teaching schedule and adding new tools to your business belt. At the end of the 6 months, you will have established a budding kids yoga business to call your own!

1. The Business/Creative Track is catered more towards individuals who are just starting out with their kids yoga business. If you are looking to launch your program full throttle in your community, then projects such as building a website, branding your business, creating a customer avatar to understand your target market, creating a promotional video, and hosting a fun community event are sure to be powerful steps for you. 
2. Teaching/Creative Track helps you to further develop your unique approach to teaching kids yoga through a number of projects like creating yoga sequences, curriculums, resources and more.

4. Sharing and Service Track will connect you with your community, challenging you to share the joy of yoga in new and creative ways to serve a special need. To accomplish this, you may explore a book study/community service project, mindfulness project and more!

During the month 1 Skype call with your mentor, you will work together to determine which track and projects are best suited for the development of your business and modify them accordingly. You will have the following 5 months to complete the chosen projects, and your mentor will assist you in creating a timeline for completion AND help you stay on track. All of these projects are SO important and truly help build your business. No matter what track you choose for your Level 2 program, you will eventually want to do ALL of them! Luckily, you will have access to our online learning platform forever after you graduate, so you can come back and revisit them anytime.
