In our 300-hr training, we meet one weekend a month for an entire year.
​
Here's a preview of just SOME of the topics we will be looking at in-depth over the course of ONE FULL YEAR together in the training...
5 Domains of Mastery of Baptiste Yoga:
Mastery of Delivery: We'll look at the specific words we use (as a teacher and in our lives) and use them to work for us in creating powerful experiences for ourselves and our students. We will also look at the psychology of delivery in the realm of teaching and facilitating programs and workshops.
Mastery of Mechanics: Diving deep into anatomy, alignment, and how our bodies are made to create the greatest results in our own practice, and for that of our students.
Mastery of Communal Environment: The art of harnessing all the energy of a room - both in-person and online. Creating a space and a container as a facilitator and leader through details and intentionality to shape the listening for the students.
Mastery of Methodology: Flushing out the methodology even more, and knowing how to use it and draw from it in the moment, as a way to serve the experience and what's needed.
Mastery of Self: Understanding yourself on a deeper level so you can get clear to show up fully for others without letting anything else get in the way. Showing up for you, your habits, your commitments, and creating a life you love.
Facilitation training...we will cover how to lead programs, whether it's a 2-hour workshop, a 40-days program, or an entire teacher training! The principles are all the same (just as in our asana practice) and the scale of the project is malleable (just like the intensity of a pose - scale up or scale down).
Lots of guest teachers! You know how I love to share and spread the love around...it's not just about one person...all my yoga career I've been constantly learning from dozens of teachers, and I specifically look for opportunities to learn from people I haven't yet, to broaden my scope, to learn new things. I know first-hand the value of learning from multiple sources, and I am committed to bringing many incredible leaders in the global community to be a part of the training.
​
Recordings of each session are always provided to each participant after each weekend gathering, for those who have a conflict or who simply want to go back and interact with the sessions again and again. What an incredible opportunity thanks to zoom!
