Do you love Inside Flow? Do you want to learn how to share this practice with your students? Or do you already teach Inside Flow and want to refine your teaching skills and understanding of the practice?
This 50-hour Inside Flow teacher training program with Ami Norton – held at the beautiful Floresta Encantada in Sintra, Portugal – will give you the skills and knowledge you need to create magical Inside Flow experiences. In a small group of max. 20 participants, you’ll learn the theory and methods behind Inside Flow, create group flows, receive individual feedback, and of course practice, lots of great Inside Flows. Between training sessions, you can explore the landscape around Four Trees, take a dip in the pool, chill in a hammock or even take a plunge in the ice bath ;) The perfect mix – a yoga teacher training with a retreat feeling.
What is Inside Flow?
Vibrant, moving, graceful. Inside Flow is a vinyasa flow choreography that is taught on beat to the music and tailored to a specific song. But there is so much more to it than that! This harmonious symbiosis of fluid movement, conscious breath, and expression and emotion helps you to feel truly connected to yourself and your inner world.
Inside Flow Training – Content
1 . Connection between breath and movement in Vinyasa Flow
You will learn how to bring your breath and movement together in harmony in vinyasa flow. Graceful, honey-like movements combined with steady, even breath will allow you to dive deeper into your flow practice and tap into your true physical and emotional strength. You will also learn how to pass this on to your students for an optimal Inside Flow experience.
2. Music Theory & Teaching On Beat
You will learn how to analyze songs for your Inside Flow classes – “where is the verse?” “How long is the chorus?” “How many breaths make up the bridge?” We will take a close look at how to count the beats, create harmonious playlists, and use music in the room.
3. Creative Flow Creation – Flow Factory
How is an Inside Flow created? Which asanas make sense in which order? How do you make your transitions smoother? How is an Inside Flow structured? We will look at these questions and more, creating flows in groups. You will learn how to express yourself using Inside Flow with space for creativity within a clearly defined structure.
4. Sequencing – Class Structure
Once you’ve learned to teach on beat and how Inside Flows are structured, you’ll learn how to teach these flows to your students and how to plan and structure your Inside Flow classes. We will look at different ways to break down your sequences, which order to teach them, and how to support your students when learning how to move on beat to the music. Using the systems and didactic methods we learn here, you’ll not only create great Inside Flow classes but also transform your other yoga classes too.
5. Playlist and Storytelling
Emotion plays a key role in Inside Flow. On the one hand, you’ll learn how to use music to create specific emotional energy in the room. On the other, we’ll look at ways to incorporate emotional themes into your Inside Flow classes to pick up your students on all levels. This is where breath, movement, and music come together to create a practice for body, mind, and soul.
