Form friendships for life and cross-promote with colleagues through monthly online meet-ups with a small group

Here’s How the On-Line Mentorship Works
Over the course of three months, we will share (6), 2-hr live video zoom calls which will be recorded and posted in the classroom. You will be working on a business plan, web page, or developing teaching/coaching curriculum off line with peer review (plan for a few hours of offline work weekly throughout on business development, and a monthly meeting with a small peer group.)
In our discussions, we will share study of Ashtanga Hrdayam, review of AHC level concepts and use of herbs and spices, as well as discuss successes, pitfalls, and build confidence in practice.
