Our vision is to bring together teachers who have been trained in a range of approaches, to provide a support network whilst we learn and develop our skills together.
As part of our commitment to engage with the global mindfulness community, we are introducing an Associates Programme (official name to be confirmed). When the programme commences, there will be two areas:
- Practitioners
- Trained Teachers
We will launch the programme in October 2024; below are the details for membership:
