Guidelines of Module 1- Build:
Group Setting In-Studio Sessions (50 hours spread over 2 weekends)
a) Personal goal setting and creating your ‘WHY’ – People lose their way when they forget their why! Get clarity on why you teach (or want to teach), create your vision, set goals, and develop actionable steps.
b) The Art & Science of sequencing – The art of sequencing a class uses your skill and intuition, while the science provides guidelines on linking postures together in a comprehensive manner. Discussion and practicum will include various iterations/styles of flow (vinyasa). As a teacher, combining the art and science of sequencing will increase your confidence and take your teaching to the next level!
c) The when and why to verbal assist – Develop global vision, prioritization, and a trauma-informed approach to assisting students. Deepen your observational skills to ensure your verbal assists are supportive, appropriate, feel good, and enhance your students’ experience on the mat.
d) Develop your voice – Learn about language and effective ways to communicate to students at all levels of asana practice. Learn how to use your words to inspire your students and connect with them in a meaningful way.
e) How to teach, cue and sequence more advanced poses- break the poses down, understand the targeted area and energetics to mindfully incorporate them into a flow sequence.
You will have ample opportunity to practice teach and incorporate the knowledge and skills you learn throughout the program during the weekend intensives. You will receive supportive and comprehensive feedback.
