BÄREDYGTIG - ACROYOGA TEACHER TRAINING(100 hours, summer 2022)
IF YOU HAVE PRACTICED JUST A LITTLE BIT OF ACROYOGA, you have probably been in situations where you needed to teach someone else the basics in order to have someone to play with. It’s an obvious move to share the practice you love and this training will help you to stand with clarity as a teacher, to grow the seed within and to have fun along the way.
BÄREDYGTIGHED MEANS TO CARRY SKILLFULLY, and also translates to “sustainable” – two amazing qualities we believe to be the core of a good and transformative practice.
THIS TRAINING IS ABOUT GROWING THE TEACHING SEED through three main pillars: 1. Deepening your acroyoga practice (both physical and philosophical understanding), 2. Growing as a teacher and person (your personal growth is the fuel for your teacher fire – the warmer it gets the more people can gather) 3. Learning to create and lead supportive and sustainable communities.
1. THE ACROYOGA PRACTICE. In the training, you will dive deep into the acroyoga practice in a sustainable way, embodying stability, trust and mindfulness in the three basic roles of the solar (acrobatic) practice. In the vibrant and energizing solar practice, we’ll explore the principles that make skillful carrying full of grace and ease. You can also look forward to the healing lunar arts of thai yoga massage and flying therapeutics, which we will practice, but focus less on teaching.
2. THE ROLE OF THE TEACHER. The role of the teacher also needs to be carried skillfully, and this is not always easy. Through practical experiences teaching, feedback and discussions we will explore concrete ways to Grow as a teacher while both taking care of yourself and carrying the responsibility of that role more confidently and sustainably.
3. A SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY: Perhaps most importantly, this training is an opportunity to be part of and learn how to lead a sustainable community, where you can trust your place in a circle of supportive and honest people. We will share the joy of playing and build those connections between us that can carry us through a heartfelt life.
