Course Details: Shakti Spirit Teacher Training Course
We meet approximately seven hours per day, five days per week, with some exceptions that will be announced in advance. Generally, except when noted, Sunday will be a “holiday,” or day off, but the exact two days off per week will be “floating” -- meaning they will change week-by-week, depending on our energy levels and the events that we plan.
There will be some additional evening events (rituals, meditations, etc.) as well as other optional activities such as video shootings and local expeditions. Any deviations from the core schedule will be announced as far in advance as possible. There will also be additional group hours scheduled for more informal sharing, support circles, reviewing note, etc. Days off are opportunities for group members to gather to share or simply to rest, relax, rejuvenate and integrate!
Our day will be divided into two sessions. Typically, we meet from 9:00-12:00 and 17:00-20:00. Two days per week, our morning sessions run until 13:00. On some days we vary these hours to accommodate special events, etc. Fridays we often go until 23:00 for ceremony. There are also additional independent hours incorporated into the course for for rituals, journaling, practice and preparing for teaching modules.
A teaching practicum schedule will be devised so that each participant has the opportunity to lead movement, theory, and self-development exercises.
Overall, the course is demanding but the days will be well-paced, balancing the physical movement portion with complementary activities, self-development exercises, discussions, meditations, and lectures.
