Theming Teacher Training | VIRTUAL

Jennie Wadsten | 29 October 2023 | 10 Hours | Price: £60

This exciting one day workshop is an opportunity to get fresh inspiration and creative input on how to integrate themes into your classes. It can be attended as a stand-alone CPD course or as an optional module on our 300-hour programme. The course is recorded and can be attended via livestream or on catch up.

Course Overview

Theming as a Yoga Teacher is a wonderful way to keep your classes inspiring for the students and interesting for you as a teacher. It is common for many teachers to “sandwich” themes in at the beginning and end of the class, which is not as powerful as a class that seamlessly interweaves and integrates a theme throughout.

Learn to share the wisdom of yoga teachings through this workshop with long time teacher and lead Level 2 teacher Jennie Wadsten. Jennie teaches in an accessible, fun way and interactive way, encouraging yoga teachers to find their authentic voice and helping them to spread their yogic knowledge in a comprehensible, intelligent and useful way.

Course Content

On this training, you will learn how to theme yoga classes in a way that is useful and inspiring for everyone.

We will cover:

How to authentically find “your voice” when teaching
