Hola!
I am still enjoying the richness of training and treatment in Kerala, and am so looking forward to sharing the practice with you very soon.
The final dates and pricing for the upcoming immersion and teacher training in Mexico have been set. Here are the specifics.
Dates: May 1st - 15th, 2010
For the immersion you can pick your dates anywhere within the May 1 - 15 window, from a long weekend to the full two weeks. Teacher training starts on Saturday of each week.
The Practice:
Much like Kalari practice in India, the morning sessions will focus on repetition, (Abhyasi = "the repeating one"), internalizing the movement patterns, programming the the "reptile brain". Beginners will be able to lay the foundations of the practice on a level that would take weeks or months in a normal class setting. For advanced students it will offer deep immersion, unique forms and exercises not commonly taught in daily classes or workshops outside of India.
The afternoons practices will be lighter, and each have a different focus, expanding into new areas of study, also giving a theoretical understanding.
Teacher Training:
For those following our Teacher Training Certification course, this Oaxaca retreat will count for 60 of the 200 required hours. Kalari Sangha is planning two more immersions this year in Central America, two in Europe, and weekend modules in U.S. cities that will also count toward the total number of required hours. We'll detail the full structure of the teacher training in our next message, so stay in touch!
Bodywork / Treatments:
In addition, a limited number of Kalari Treatments and Massages will be offered, greatly enhancing the evolution of the practitioners’ physical and spiritual body, and offering therapeutics for those who may need healing (at an additional cost), more information on this in our next email.
