Delicious Sequencing: Heart and Science

CODE: TTAC
We want our students to have a satisfying, meaningful experience in our classes -- yummy and nourishing.
In this daylong Teacher Training Intensive, Annie will deconstruct the components of a successful sequence, like the ingredients of a great recipe, and teach you how to choose the ingredients, or poses, and when to blend each element in, just as surely as when and how many hot peppers to add to your black bean chili! The morning will include a flow practice, which we will then analyze as a template recipe. In the afternoon, we will consider how to drive or inspire your sequences to deeper dimensions, considering how moving beyond the asana “limb” can inform and “spice up” your sequences to bring the heart into your classes.

Refining Communication and How to Teach Vinyasa Flow to Beginners

CODE: TTMX
Part 1 - Refining Communication
People often assume that their favorite teachers are able to speak clearly, concisely, and lovingly because they were born that way. But this is rarely true. Teachers who excel with communication often simply work harder at it and never stop studying and improving their art of teaching. This seminar offers several techniques for refining and empowering your ability to communicate what you want to say in the tone you want to say it with. The practical principles you will learn in this workshop will take you to new levels in your teaching and inspire you for weeks to come.

Part 2 - How to Teach Vinyasa Flow to Beginners
The beginner needs a combination of flowing-movement, safety, and education. They need to learn to breathe and to understand why they need to learn to breathe. Leading such a class is often intimidating to teachers leaving them reluctant to teach beginning students at all. Experience Max Strom’s renowned prana-flow class for beginners, refined over a ten-year period. Class will include a short talk, vinyasa-flow, breathing, and meditation. It will help you to embrace teaching beginning students with new confidence and knowledge.
