Foundations of Early Childhood and the Inner Work of Teaching 

In this workshop you will be introduced to the varieties of verses, meditations and inner work exercises that can weave into your life in a comfortable and natural way as you work with the young child.

In this workshop we will explore the four foundational senses through movement and what can evolve out of well-integrated senses. We will also discuss what hindrances may evolve when the child needs more attention in these areas.  

 The afternoon will include learning about yearly rhythms and festivals which we will put into our hands by making Martinmas lanterns.
