No matter what courses you do or skills you learn in life, you always start at the bottom and work your way up.
β
β
When you started school you were new and had to start from the bottom, then you left school and went to college or Uni, then you left there and got a job.

Thereβs a learning curve we all have to go through and doing your teacher training is no different.

However, because of the emphasis we put on giving YOU ππππ ππ ππππ ππππ ππππππππππ your learning curve is so much quicker than what it might be in other situations.

On the first weekend everyone arrives and youβre all nervous and of course feeling stressed as you have to sit the theory assessment that day. π€― β (Even I get nervous for you too!)
β
β
By Sunday youβre teaching in pairs and starting to get used to yourself having to verbalise pilates or yoga exercises. β β β β
β
β
Itβs laid back and you can even use books to help you, as the point isnβt that you have everything memorised, itβs just for you to get comfortable talking in front of other people.
β
Then as the weekends progress you start needing your book less, you start looking at your fellow teachers and seeing whatβs in front of you and again thereβs always some exercises to help speed up your learning process.

β
At the beginning of the third weekend itβs not unusual to have a wobble and a βI canβt do thisβ moment and then at some point during the 3rd weekend β¦.. π

Thereβs a switch from being the learner to the teacher and I canβt really explain what I see.
β
Itβs like the teachers have a lightbulb π‘ moment and actually π©π¬π³π°π¬π½π¬ that you can teach. πΊ

You grow taller and you lift your head with this new belief and confidence AND THATβS THE MAGIC FOR ME and thatβs when YOU become a teacher. β
β
β
Yes a piece of paper might say youβre qualified, but in my eyes being a teacher isnβt just the certificate, itβs the knowledge, skill and confidence that you gain from all the practising that we do and all the ways we make the learning interesting and fun. β β β

If you want to join us on that then just get in touch by message or email and Iβll send you a prospectus and we can have a chat to see if weβre a right fit for each other! β

Lots of love
