Program

This is a 220-hour Shakti Dance Teacher Training program. It includes class study on site, homework, group work during training at home and on site. It also includes teaching practicum under the Lead Trainer supervision. In addition, you need to consider that this Shakti Dance™ Training is an intense program, which is rich with theory and practice both at home and in class.

 

The program includes topics such as: Yoga Philosophy and Yoga Mythology to understand and define Shakti Dance™ background and Yoga history and its development, you will study in deep the relationship between Dance, Yoga and traditional Tantric philosophy; moreover, you will be guided through every single phase of a class of Shakti Dance™ to understand the dynamic flow of the energy to educate and awaken the body. The Electromagnetism will teach you how to affect the mind through movement and still meditation to bring harmony and balance, and you will learn the magic of a conscious and correct breath, which has the power to shift your own frequency and create a deeper connection with your spiritual individuality to liberate your potential and heal.  These are a just a few topics taught in this program, there is more. The complete training itself, will give you the practical tools and the theoretic knowledge to create a class of Shakti Dance™ coherent with the teachings and energetically effective to produce the level of healing you want.

 

Shakti Dance™ is inspired to Kundalini Yoga, it has been blessed by Yogi Bhajan, Master of Kundalini Yoga in 2001, but it is not Kundalini Yoga; however, it is a complementary discipline which can enhance your Yoga practice and the knowledge of it.

If you are a certified KY or any other Yoga style instructor, you will be considered advanced and obviously advantaged, but it is not a sufficient reason to cut short this training program. Even though you have already studied some of the topics in your previous Yoga Training (200h or 500h), Shakti Dance™ considers these topics under different point of views. Therefore, we kindly suggest you to participate to this program bringing your knowledge and curiosity humbly and full of good intention for a new growth.
