Dancing Mindfulness Facilitator Training


    Dancing Mindfulness Facilitator Training
    By Mindful Journey Center
     Fort Lauderdale, FL, May 1-3 2015

    If you are currently teaching any type of wellness-related class (yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi, dance, related modalities), if you are a classroom teacher, or a licensed/trained helping professional of any kind (e.g., counselor, psychologist, social worker, nurse, psychiatrist, CD counselor), you are welcome to take this weekend facilitator training intensive! Graduate students are welcome. You MUST complete the whole weekend agenda to be awarded certification on behalf of Mindful Ohio. 

    Mindfulness is the simple practice of noticing without judgment, savoring the art of being in the moment. Mindfulness, psychodrama, meditation, and yoga are modalities that can promote wellness and recovery. "Dancing Mindfulness" is a practice developed by clinical counselor Dr. Jamie Marich incorporating all of these elements. Dance becomes the primary avenue through which to access mindful awareness! There are seven basic elements of a "Dancing Mindfulness" class (breath, sound, body, mind, spirit, story, and integrated experience) to help participants experience the attitudes and benefits of mindful awareness. "Dancing Mindfulness" classes range in length from 30 minutes to 2 hours, and they can be designed to accommodate a variety of populations in various settings (e.g., yoga studios, community gatherings, clinical settings, dance studios, churches, gyms).
