A SCHOOL FOR LIFE!
The theoretical and practical (vivencial) weekends have the power to transform your outlook on life, they form a comprehensive and unified training programme. We place great emphasis on the vivencial and experiential process.
Personal Life, Professional Life and the Social Life.
The First Year. Our first 10 school weekends will give you a grounding in the theoretical foundations of Biodanza and their relationship to different aspects of human sciences. Whether you are doing the training or coming as a regular dancer, our emphasis on dancing and connecting together in the vivencia will gradually deepen your experience.
You can choose the option to join the school in order to explore in more depth the personal and social aspects of Biodanza without wanting to become a facilitator so you can dance with us regularly each school weekend.
The Second Year. These next 10 weekends are now targeted more specifically to the mechanisms and effects of Biodanza. This is the heart of the training.
The Third Year. These final 8 weekends begin theintroduction to the methodology – the ‘how’ of becoming a facilitator. After an interview with the Directors to discuss your progress and suitability for the practical training you will be invited to begin this final year of your training. We shift to learning the theoretical and practical skills needed by a Biodanza facilitator to lead a group. These skills are:
Understanding the theory and methodology of Biodanza
Your own ability to experience vivencia
Your ability to demonstrate the exercises to others
Your enunciation (or introduction) of exercises
Your choice of music and understanding of how it works
Your design of a class using the appropriate sequence of exercises
Your observation and reading of the group
Towards the end of this year a supervisory period will be arranged to help you to set up your own group and to apply the material learned and in the preparation and presentation of a monography
