#5 CI Teacher Training in Freiburg, Germany
Annual 4 Weeks Training Program 2026/27
facilitated by Daniela Schwartz, Eckhard Müller & Melanie Seeger
Why?
Many people with a strong desire to teach/facilitate CI in diverse contexts wish to have support for their path as well as:
A peer group to share questions and doubts with, to gain confidence and accompanied through their process.
A safe place to practice articulation and languaging of an experience to be transmitted or shared.
An environment to nourish and question their teaching practice and resources related to CI transmission/facilitation/teaching.
To develop their own particular CI teaching style and strengthen their voice.
How?
We propose a training structure with 4x one-week training in a closed group. In between the training weeks there is time to continue your research/practice, find answers to questions, and hopefully find more questions.
As part of the training, participants will co-facilitate warm ups, exercises, co-teach a class and receive feedback from the group.
Content of the Program
We will share the motivation to be in this program and the questions we all bring.
CI classes will be offered as models, taught by one of the teachers’ team.
We will reflect, talk and discuss about how to look at classes and how to analyze them. Through the discussions you will find your own filters and ways.
We will open space for first experiments offering co-teaching labs and discussions to a certain topic of interest and will also propose labs to your questions.
We will share resources, strategies and scores, which will facilitate access to new material/thoughts/ideas.
Possible Questions
Questions about teaching could be:
What is CI for me? (more general)
Which (content / structure / values) do I wish to provide through my teaching?
How do I wish to teach (environment/quality/atmosphere of the class)?
How do I prepare a class?
How do I lead a class?
Safety issues for a class or a jam.
What is important for me?
What is a CI jam for me, how would I host one?
CI and socio-politics: What CI has to do with our society?
CI as a performance art or/and a social dance?
Feedbacks
We provide different structures and methods to give/receive personal feedback within the entire group and small groups.
Formation/Diploma
In CI there is no certification, anybody who wishes can become a CI teacher, this program is a frame for you to develop your teaching practice and skills.
We will encourage you to co-teach one entire class towards the end of the program. You will choose your group and your interest. You will receive feedback from the group and/or the teachers in your chosen format.
You cannot fail the program, you will deal with the feedback you receive in the way is the most useful to yourself.
For Whom?
If what you’ve read made you curious, you feel the desire to have the support from a team of experienced CI teachers and peers, and you are willing to enter into a group process that will help you find your way into teaching, this could be the right program for you.
