Course Content

• In depth analysis of the MBS interweaving of Group Classes and Individual Lessons
• Selection and effective implementation of demonstrations during class
• Ensuring continuity and development of the curriculum
• Working and communicating in a team setting

Course Format

From Practice to Teaching consists of two stages:

• Initial 10 day training
• Apprentice for duration of 90 day MBS Professional Foundation Training

Prospective trainers are evaluated individually and as team-workers, learning from each other’s strengths, as well as from the course material. We mentor candidate trainers to ensure they polish their technique, so that they can demonstrate in class, strengthen their presentation skills and analyze in depth the construction of the group classes. They learn how to support students, build teamwork, work with groups, and lead with quiet confidence. Close individual evaluation and mentoring is a mainstay throughout the courses.
