Mentorship Application Questionnaire

Mentorship with Julie S. Holly is a living practice — not a course, not a quick fix, and not therapy. It is a sustained, embodied conversation between where you are and who you are becoming. Before we begin, I'd love to know a little about you. Take your time. There are no wrong answers here — only honest ones.

SECTION 2: YOUR PRACTICE & PATH

This helps me understand your relationship with your body and your practice — wherever you are is welcome here.

How long have you been practicing or teaching, and what traditions or lineages have shaped you most?

Do you identify as a yoga teacher, a practitioner, an activist, an artist — or some blend of all of these? Tell me in your own words.

SECTION 3: WHAT BROUGHT YOU HERE

These questions get at the heart of why mentorship, and why now.

What's happening in your life or practice that made you seek mentorship at this moment?

Is there something you've been carrying — a question, a pattern, a longing — that you haven't quite been able to put into words yet? Try anyway.

Have you worked with a mentor, coach, or guide before? If so, what did you take from that experience — and what did you need that you didn't get?

SECTION 4: WHAT YOU'RE MOVING TOWARD

Transformation isn't a destination — but it does have a direction. Let's find yours.

If our work together goes beautifully, what shifts for you? What do you feel in your body, your teaching, your life?

What would it mean to feel truly at home in your practice — and in yourself?

Is there a specific skill, philosophy, or aspect of your teaching or personal practice you most want to deepen? e.g., sequencing, anatomy, pranayama, philosophy, somatic work, your voice as a teacher, navigating grief or transition, etc.

SECTION 5: CHOOSING YOUR CONTAINER

Mentorship unfolds over time. Real transformation needs room to breathe

Which container are you drawn to?

3 months — A focused deep dive into one area of growth

6 months — A fuller arc: roots, inquiry, and integration

12 months — The full journey: embodied, relational, transformational

What feels true for you about the length you chose?

Is there anything about your schedule, life circumstances, or finances that I should know as we explore working together? This is a safe place to be honest

SECTION 6: A LITTLE MORE YOU

Because I want to know the whole person, not just the seeker.

What are you reading, listening to, or sitting with creatively right now?

Is there anything else you want me to know, about you, your life, your hopes for this work?

Thank you for taking the time to be honest and reflective here. This questionnaire is itself the beginning of the work — showing up, telling the truth, and saying yes to something that matters. I'll be in touch within 5 business days to schedule a discovery call.
