Sangha Community Mentor
What folks are saying ❤️
Taranee, P.
“Being a part of the first Soulga Sangha was heart opening. I had the pleasure of being mentored by Rochelle Miller and had a wonderful experience with her. I felt she was attentive, compassionate, and extremely kind. She was able to meet me where I was and provide me with helpful advice to help elevate my teaching. The line-up of Sangha teachers was great. You could really feel that every single teacher was invested in your growth whether they were your mentor or not. This was a super special course for me to be a part of and since then have experience massive growth in my teaching and confidence. A big heartfelt thank you to the Soulga family for helping me elevate and grow!”

“The Soulga Sangha gave me a sense of community with fellow melanated instructors. I really felt seen with this community. I feel inspired to continue learning and leaning into my power. Each Soulga facilitator had something really special to share.”
