Aligned Teaching Mentorship
Only 2 spaces available

Find your voice.
Teach from it.

An mentorship for yoga teachers who have the training, but not yet the voice. Who know the cues, but haven't always felt them. This is where the gap closes, between what you learned and what actually happens in the room, on and off the mat.

The Programme

8 weeks. One space, made for you.

One weekly live video session, built around whatever you're working with: sequencing, cueing, mental blocks, student relationships, voice, alignment. This is your space to bring whatever you're working on, or struggling with, and I am here to support.

No fixed curriculum. This is your time, and I'm here to help with your specific needs. Some weeks we'll talk it through. Some weeks we'll practice and move. We can do both.

We'll also go deep on alignment and adjustment as the foundation of your teaching, to build the kind of detailed, accurate instruction that creates a real internal experience for your students, not just a visual one, and an enjoyable experience for you. Students don't remember every cue, but they remember how a class made them feel in their body, and how their teacher seemed whilst teaching.



Why This Mentorship

Not your typical mentorship. More than teaching skills.

What I bring to this mentorship goes beyond just teaching skills and advice, it's an integration with my other path in life, as a counsellor. I believe that to really teach from a place of purpose, true self, consciousness, there's a process beyond learning what to say and why. It's teaching in a way that ignites you, and consequently, your students. We all know when a teacher isn't present with what they're saying. These are not the teachers I work with.

I work with teachers who are living their path and their desire to teach, but feel stuck, unsure, lacking confidence. This is where my blended approach, teaching skills, knowledge, practical application, mindfulness and mindset, unlocks your potential.

If this sounds like you in any way, and you're ready to go deeper into yourself, on and off of the mat, to get to know your why as a teacher and unlock your potential, this mentorship may be exactly for you.

Is This You?

This is for you if…

  • You're a new teacher, or an experienced one feeling stuck in your practice or your teaching
  • You're saying words that don't feel like yours, you're not sure why you're saying them, or you don't know what to say at all
  • You want to teach intentionally, with a real alignment focus
  • You're struggling to connect with students and build relationships
  • You're a committed practitioner who can commit to an 8 week period (with flexibility if life gets in the way)

Meet Your Mentor

Ester Oldfield.

I came to yoga for my own anxiety, on the advice of a doctor in Hong Kong I'll always be grateful for. I will never forget the first class that changed everything for me. The first experience of being present, with myself, in a long time. I didn't know it at the time, but it ignited what I now see as my dharma. To teach yoga. And now, to share this with other teachers.

I knew early on in my practice that I wanted to teach. It was clear, like a diamond. I went blinkers on, all in, to make it happen. I had no words for the certainty that this was my path. 23-year-old me was right.

Teaching yoga is where I feel most alive. Connected, to myself, life, you. Nearly a decade on, I still pinch myself this is my work.

My foundation was built at Pure Yoga Hong Kong, where I spent eight years teaching everything. Every style, every level, every kind of person. I specialise in alignment based yoga rooted in Iyengar principles and Hot 26, and have over 900 hours training across foundation, advanced, and specialist programmes.

Now two years into my own business, as an international yoga teacher, event facilitator, and host, mentorship is where I see a true alignment. A channel for my experience, knowledge, lessons, mistakes, and wisdom to go now.

I remember how you are feeling, and you don't have to feel this way.

Why Application Only

This works best as a fit.

There are only 3 spaces in this round, and this mentorship works best when it's the right fit, for both of us. The application tells me where you're at, what you're working with, and what's getting in the way. It takes a few minutes, and it also tells me how ready you are to do this work. If it feels aligned, you'll hear from me directly within 48 hours.
