CHAKRA DANCING & MEDITATION TEACHING DIPLOMA OCTOBER 2011

The focus of this course will be on training tutors to heal the body, our individual and collective selves through movement, dance and creative meditation. This challenging and rewarding course will take students on a journey of self-discovery and transformation and empower others to find happiness in themselves. Anita Whittaker will prepare students to lead chakra dancing workshops that will free up natural energy flows, harmonise and balance the chakras, strengthen our state of health and well-being and have fun! Graduates will be supported by Chakra Dancing Ltd to facilitate the self and others towards a deeper sense of being with empathy, integrity, compassion and unconditional love. Chakra Dancing is an exhilarating, powerful, liberating and ultimately an ecstatic approach to improvisational movement, open to everyone, no matter what age, shape or experience, bringing people together and exploring how we can assist each other using free expression through movement dance and creative meditation. In 2008 Dance in Yoga (continued professional development) was launched to graduates of the above teaching diploma and is fast becoming an integral part of the holistic healing process.

There is full insurance for successful graduates of the teaching diploma programme and student insurance for training purposes.

"Whether I am healing my body through dance, meditating, chanting or using colour and sound I am balancing my energy levels. I feel stronger in my body and I am able to cope with everyday stress especially as we have forgotten how to get the balance right between work and play. I have piece of mind, and apart from being on my own journey I like to think I am helping others. I feel very passionately that there is a need for a body of professionally trained Chakra Dancing healers to help champion the spiritually charged power of healing through dance. This is an exciting time for all of us, a magical journey, where we will love, share, and grow together and our greatest teachers and mentors will be each other.” Anita

Course Philosophy and Vision:

Expanding on the work of Chakra Dancing, the course will develop a network of tutors to meet and deliver to the increasing demand for Chakra Dancing workshops and creative meditation across the UK. The course will provide an in-depth study into aspects of emotional, somatic, psychological and spiritual healing and growth. A strong grounding of knowledge of light working will be related to the body’s seven major chakras and their influence on the auric field layers of the self and others. Further study will examine their relationship to elementals, cerebrospinal locations and their effects on the endocrine system.

Issues of health and safety, good practice, working with children and vulnerable members of our community and most importantly self-awareness in dance teaching will be covered in detail. Students will also learn other complementary energy healing tools for creative use in Chakra Dancing workshops such as sound, colour, light, creative meditation, and visualisation which correspond to each energy centre.

Graduates will become qualified tutors able to lead dance workshops and classes that will take themselves and others on a journey through the chakras to heal the mind, body and soul. Chakra Dancing Ltd will support committed members who have trained in the teacher training diploma course with Anita Whittaker and help promote, recommend and refer tutors. Successful candidates will be awarded the Dip in Chakra Dancing teacher training and be admitted to the register of Chakra dancing tutors at www.chakradancing.co.uk
