Apprenticeship Program
Apprentice with Leah Gillman
January 12 - June 15, 2014
The Apprenticeship Program (AP) takes participants to their next level in: their asana practice, their teaching and their overall understanding of yoga and how it is integrating into their daily life. The unique format of the AP is varied, offering a well-rounded experience. Apprentices spend time as a student in ‘regular classes’, as an assistant in classes, as a student in workshop-type classes, as a teacher, and in discussions that are based on the questions, challenges and openings that emerge for the participants. Apprentices will also be introduced to giving and receiving bodywork as a way of supplementing an asana practice.
All graduates of the FYTT I program are eligible to participate in the Apprenticeship Program.
Graduates of teacher training programs, or an equivalent background from outside of Barefoot Movement need to fill out the Application Form.
The Apprenticeship Program is a required component for the Flow Yoga Teacher Training, Level II (FYTT II) program.
