Instructor/Assistant Expectations & Information
Mohan runs 6 or 7 week programs. Depending on the day that you instruct, you must be able to commit to the entire length of the program. See our operating calendar before registering so you know what to expect! Please do not register if you are not able to commit. We depend on all instructors to be available for this very short period of the winter! If you have any concerns or questions, please feel free to contact us at any time. All of our students and staff are depending on you for the scheduled length of the program.
We always have a demand for full-time staff. If you're able to commit full-time, you're more than welcome to live in our lodge over the course of the season rent free! Instructors planning on working Friday nights and weekends are eligible to stay the night in the lodge with a small donation towards utilities.
Attending Clinics is necessary for all staff. If you are a new instructor or assistant, you will have to attend all clinics. If you have been instructing with Mohan for more than a year, you will only have to attend some clinics. More information found on the registration page.
