Shiva Nata: the Dance of Shiva
Shiva Nata teacher training weekend in February!
A weekend! Shiva Nata! Teacher training!
A weekend of madcap Shivanauttery and instruction and turning you into someone who feels capable, confident, competent and ready.
Very exciting.
The when:
The weekend of February 18-20.
We start Friday evening at 5pm, go all day (with lots of breaks) Saturday, and have a half day Sunday.
The where:
Portland, Oregon.
At the Playground (my beautiful studio for all things Shiva Nata).
The who:
Anyone who has ever done Shiva Nata.
You think you aren’t ready but you actually are.
You do not need to be any good at Dance of Shiva or even want to teach (ask anyone who came last time!).
The world needs more people teaching this. The epiphanies will be outrageously great. And if you think you aren’t ready, you definitely are.
And if you teach anything else, it will help you with that too. Ooh, I should probably mention that on the actual page.
Anyway.
The details.
Details are here: http://shivanata.com/teacher-trainings
That’s it.
Registration is now open. The Playground is fully equipped with all the best toys, tea and really good snacks.
We’re going to have a ridiculous amount of fun. And take apart some patterns. And build some new ones. And surprise ourselves.
And if you have any questions at all, let me know in the comments. I might have some ideas. Or maybe someone who’s been to a training before be able to answer too.

This isn’t for me now, but I read your page anyway and just wanted to say, I love this:
“What used to be your left is now your right. But you’re still calling it left. How to do this smoothly and easily without screwing up and still maintaining some sanity.”
I’ve done a bunch of workout, yoga, Tai chi videos in my day and it’s always so much better when the instructor is performing the mirror image of what I’m supposed to be doing. So yay that you get that!

Awesome. And scheduled so much in advance so people can work this out into their schedule = even better.
I came to the inaugural teacher training in June 2010 and it was fantastic. So much was covered in a day!
And now I’d like to come to another teacher training event (can’t get enough of this stuff!)
Havi, what is your thinking: would it make sense for people who are already certified to come in February? (Or maybe there is a step-two teacher training coming up at some point?)

Wishing I could attend. I’m actually presenting at a teaching economics conference that weekend.

Not this time … but maybe next time around! By then I’ll have some more Shivanautery behind me and a little more flexibility in my schedule.
I’m intrigued by the “teaching other things” aspect. I teach a LOT of things. To little kids, and grown-ups, and a fantastic group of middle schoolers. If other teachers-of-stuff would tell us about how this works for them, I’d be very interested to hear it!

@claire – oh absolutely. There is no other way to teach it — it would be totally unacceptable to teach shiva nata in a way that wasn’t modeling it, because the whole thing works on the principle of the mirror reflections. :)
@reba – awesome!!
@jenia – of course, it would be brilliant to do the training and take it deeper. Very good question. I answered it more in detail here: http://shivanata.com/blog/ask/shiva-nata-teacher-training-two-useful-questions/
