Sit in sangha and accelerate your growth with a monthly, virtual mentorship focused on building a sustainable business as a Yoga entrepreneur. Each month, we’ll assess 3 key areas: our personal wellbeing, our business goals and growth, and how to best support clients by sharing case studies. Special training topics to be determined based on needs of participants. You’ll leave each session with key action steps for the weeks ahead, keeping you on track and more motivated than doing this all alone. We’ll celebrate your wins each month, too, because that’s fuel for our fire!

Your guide for this mentorship experience is Cheri Dostal Ryba, C-IAYT, faculty and Co-Director of AlcheMe Yoga Therapy. She’s proud to have reinvented herself as an entrepreneur many times since 2007 – teaching in parks, private homes, her own studio space, hospitals and more, through cross country moves, early motherhood, and by befriending online offerings and virtual teaching. Sustaining teachers means supporting the much needed ripple effect we can make in this world – let’s work together toward your success.

Cheri started practicing Yoga as a dance student, and completed her B.A. Dance Degree. She then trained in New Zealand with Donna Farhi’s Advanced Yoga Teacher Training program. After a decade in the fitness industry as a Certified Personal Trainer through NASM, Cheri turned her training and energy toward more therapeutic outcomes through embodiment. Yoga, meditation and running helped her navigate personal trauma and rebuild her immune function, hope and resilience. Cheri deeply believes in the power of embodied movement practice.

Anatomy is often at the core of her lessons, giving students what Cheri playfully calls ‘x-ray vision’. She blends yoga, dance, developmental movement patterns, The Franklin Method, restorative yoga and fitness education. As a Movement and Yoga Therapist, she’s helped people with chronic pain, sacroiliac joint and pelvic, neck and back injuries, mental health/anxiety and to improve digestive health. Cheri’s contagious enthusiasm inspires you to reconnect with the joy of movement.
