Acroyoga Teacher Training
The first of its kind in Calgary
100 hours - 4 teachers
Bryce Hodgkinson, Elliot Fudge, Hayley Silberg, and Miles Kroeker all discovered Acroyoga through different movement modalities and bring complementary perspectives on how to develop confident and capable Acro teachers. We want to empower people to grow safe, creative, inclusive acroyoga communities. We have crafted an 11 day intensive program which offers students biomechanical tools and practical facilitation skills to share Acro with the world.
Each module covers close to 2 full days (9 am to 5:30/6:30 pm), and includes skill fundamentals, teaching practice, and theory discussions. This teacher training will culminate in a practical and written assessment, and ultimately, instill in each participant the efficacy to share Acro in their own safe, unique and vibrant style. Unless your natural style isn't vibrant.
