CHALLENGING SITUATIONS WITH STUDENTS
specific topics and issues of being a teacher and holding space, other 5R teachers or other conscious dance practices
SELF-CARE, EMOTIONAL ASPECT OF TEACHING
how are you affected with what you witness in the group, and with holding the space
Do I know what grabs me, ignites me, exhausts me, connects me, scares me as a teacher? Our groups are a place where we practice what we learn and where we keep learning on those curves. Our challenges as a teacher are not the same when we just graduated, or after the first few years, or after 5, 10, 15, 20 something years. I feel this job being so alive, full of waves and surprises, and I look forward to to the opportunity to ride that edge with you.
