Mentorship with Clara Roberts-Oss
Clara has offered mentorship for over 15 years to many different styles of teachers, sharing her experience and insight into teaching. This has included creating sequences, developing more refined language, figuring out what their niche is, how to market oneself, and how to develop one’s presence online.
You can either book in when it is needed or commit to a 3, 6, or 9-month mentorship.
Refine your vinyasa, deepen your teaching, and reconnect to why you fell in love with this practice in the first place.

Navigate the realities of teaching yoga as a long-term path – creatively and professionally.
Who Is This Mentorship For?
Yoga teachers who want feedback and refinement from an experienced trainer.
Teachers-in-training who want extra support as they integrate their studies.
Longtime practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of vinyasa, sequencing, and philosophy beyond a drop-in class.
Anyone who feels called to sit with a teacher they respect and ask, “What’s next for me on this path?”

Clara
Clara has always experienced movement as a way to commune with the divine. With a foundation in dance, she was drawn to vinyasa yoga for its balance of structure and self-expression—form infused with freedom.
She began practicing at Jivamukti in 1999 and completed her certification at Sonic Yoga NY in 2003, teaching full-time soon after. In 2006, she moved to Vancouver, BC, bringing a distinctive, devotional approach to vinyasa and becoming known as a “teacher’s teacher” within the growing yoga community.
Clara completed her 300-hour training with Shiva Rea’s Samudra School in 2012 and has led retreats, workshops, and teacher trainings worldwide since 2009. She has presented at gatherings including the Whistler Yoga Conference, Wanderlust Whistler, Northwest Yoga Conference, Pacific Yoga Festival, and Chamonix Yoga Festival.
A longtime faculty member at Semperviva Yoga, Clara founded the Lila School of Vinyasa Yoga in 2013 and continues to lead 200- and 300-hour trainings internationally. In 2019, she launched Practice with Clara, expanding her global reach.
Motherhood in 2020 deepened her devotion to presence, resilience, and the sacredness of each breath. Today, Clara teaches weekly classes and leads advanced trainings and retreats worldwide.
