200-hr Somatic Yoga Therapy
and Integrative Thai Yoga Massage
Practitioner Mentoring Program

The 200-hour Somatic Yoga Therapy and Integrative Thai Yoga Massage Mentoring Program is the last training component of the 875-hour Somatic Yoga Therapist Training. This is a curated container designed to support you in actualizing your personal goals as a Somatic Yoga Therapist that includes a dual certification in Integrative Thai Yoga Massage. As a participant, you will be mentored personally by Stefani Wilton, the creator of Somatic Yoga Therapy, while collaborating with your peers in an intimate, small group setting. 

​

The only way that we can provide this work effectively for others is by doing the work for ourselves, going into the difficult spaces where we still hold limiting beliefs, unraveling our old patterns, and activating those dormant parts of ourselves that want to be expressed. 

​This journey is an opportunity to do deeper self-work while you put the sharing of Somatic Yoga Therapy into action. This allows you to move through those first steps that establish your practice as a Somatic Yoga Therapist, while having the support of your mentor as you go through the challenges of completing case studies, networking, program creation, booking clients, and marketing your work. 

​

"A mentor is a person who can support, advise, and guide you. They typically take the time to get to know you and the challenges you’re facing and then use their understanding and personal experience to help you improve."

 

Focused on the facilitation of Somatic Yoga Therapy for Individuals and Groups, the Mentorship Practicum is completed in your home community during the Fall and Spring semesters through a series of 9 mentoring modules that guide you through navigating the ins and outs of practice, ethical business and marketing, planning and facilitating group and 1:1 work, and networking. In addition to completing your practicum hours, you will meet online or in person with your mentoring cohort as you are walked through researching, creating, and facilitating your case studies in Somatic Yoga Therapy offered for groups or individuals.

 

The program completes with an in-person celebratory weekend held in June of each year in Calgary, AB. Graduates are given an opportunity to share their case studies with the larger community while also experiencing some final experiences in the art of Somatic Yoga Therapy. The weekend culminates with a beautiful graduation ceremony where our graduates are celebrated for their accomplishments. Families and friends are encouraged to attend the graduation ceremony and a professional photographer is present to capture the memories.

​

As part of this journey, you will receive structured suggestions to help you actualize your practice. These suggestions are there to support you, but they do not override your vision and voice. You are encouraged to bring your dreams forward, and the program is adapted to support you. 

 

This is a mentored soul journey done with small groups of students only once yearly. Our next intake for the mentoring program is for September 2025. 

 

The 200-hour Mentoring Program is the remaining requirement in the 875-hour Somatic Yoga Therapist Certification Training. To apply to the Mentorship Practicum, one must must have completed the 200 hour Somatic Embodiment Yoga Teacher Training OR the 75-hour Somatic Yoga Therapy Bridge Program, the 300-hour Somatic-Energetic Yoga Therapy, and the 300-hour Somatic-Emotional Yoga Therapy modules.
