Curriculum

The process of learning to teach requires that you dive into your own life, your own practice, and therefore, requires that you prepare to go deep emotionally, physically, intellectually, and spiritually. There is a lot of material to cover in a few months so please ensure that you arrive for this experience ready to dive in and participate.

There is a heavy emphasis on anatomy and alignment, sequencing and theming, meditation and pranayama, and business and professionalism.

So please be prepared to be on time, to have daily reading, practice, and journaling assignments, and to complete a mid-term and final teaching demo with in-person feedback. Remember, yoga is a journey of self-discovery and building your sensitivity to the world around you.

You will be discovering and releasing attachments to that which is familiar and constricting in order to build your light to shine brighter than ever.

This teacher training is held online. Frik-Shuhn Yoga & Coaching is based in Chilliwack, Canada and they will live stream sessions via Zoom based on PDT (GMT-7) during Summer and GMT-8 for sessions before March 14, 2021 and after November 7th, 2021.
