Breathworks Mindfulness Teacher Training One (TT1)

Breathworks Mindfulness Teacher in Rome:

"In the past I have done a lot of workshops and retreats, but I never have done anything like the Breathworks training. There was so much peace and ease, everything felt so natural and simple. It was like dropping a small stone into water which had big effects. No drama, but a lot of impact. It helped me find a lot more balance in my stressful life - to have more choice in how I respond to things."

Please note

Our Teacher Training 1 Course (TT1) is not a general training in mindfulness, but a training in our specialism of applying mindfulness to helping people with chronic pain, physical illness and other kinds of suffering. Although a lot of people train with us whose client or patient group is not pain or illness, that is what we teach, and they adapt that to their own particular needs.

The Teacher Training 2 Course that follows (TT2) covers how to teach the principles and practices learned in TT1, so it would be very difficult to move straight onto TT2. People with an existing mindfulness practice will find the TT1 course an enriching experience. Those who have previously trained as mindfulness teachers may as an alternative choose to attend our three-day Breathworks Approach for MBSR/MBCT Trainers event before progressing onto our TT2 Course.
