Teacher Education Program

Practice in a focused frame

WHAT IS THIS?

The teacher education program is an intensive form of training held on a weekend, once a month. Students train in a focused frame, progressively receiving tools for a consistent training routine as well as for a possible teaching role in the future. The ambition of becoming a teacher is not mandatory, neither is it granted through joining this program!

HOW DOES IT WORK?

We hold a monthly weekend training session. The training is always Saturday from 16:00 - 19:00 and Sunday from 10:00-14:00. Saturday is dedicated to the 3 basics sets of the WDP System, while on Sunday students focus on their individual chosen styles. After 1 year, the basic topic rotates, while the individual style is practiced continuously for 4 years.
The training is hold Online via Zoom as well as at the same time at the Academy in Berlin. In order to train in person with us at the Academy bring a negative test to the class.

TRAIN WITH PLAN!

A step-by-step guidance is given throughout the monthly meetings which delivers the students all the necessary information and details, while the deepening of the material is ensured by an individually designed training plan. At the beginning of every Training-Season (1 year period) every student receives a personally tailored training plan which should be followed in the periods in between the monthly meetings.

WHO CAN JOIN?

Distance or practice levels shouldn’t be deciding factors if one can join or not. By offering a weekend training schedule, we intend to ensure that long distance students living outside the school can travel to us and join our training program. Another option is to join the classes online via zoom. Ultimately the only important requirement is dedication and an open mind. It is important that the students are willing to invest effort and time outside of the official training, as well as being ready to pass through more intense training sessions.

HOW LONG IS THE PROGRAM?

The Teacher Education is an ongoing seasonal program for 4 years. Every year a new season of training begins. Every season we focus on different basics in order to teach the complete foundation of our WDP System. After 4 years the topics repeat in a circular manner. A student is free to choose for how long they would like to take part in the program.

WILL I BE TEACHER?

Joining the program does not ensure a teacher certification after a specific time period. We take the teacher education program very seriously in order to ensure high quality standards at WDP. The program should mainly be seen as an intense frame of practicing in order to receive more tools for a possible teaching role in the WDP family. If or when the student receives a certification depends on many factors. Therefore a teacher license should not be the primary reason for joining.
Please Note: Full-time students practicing 8 hours daily at our academy can at best receive their teacher certificate after 3 years of training. Not being able to practice in an intense frame like this, makes the process possibly longer.

WHAT DO I LEARN?

The program will focus on the 6 basics of the WDP system as well as one out of four individual chosen styles.

6 Basics

  • Back to Spring Qi Gong
  • 18 Basic Tai Ji Steps
  • 5 Animals Qi Gong
  • Xuan Wu Basics
  • Cosmic Circle Qi Gong
  • 13 Pillar Standing Qi Gong

4 Styles

  • Tai Ji / Tai Yi Quan
  • Ba Gua Zhang
  • Xing Yi Quan

GRADINGS?

With a specific progress and grading pass we will monitor the students’ progress. Every year, a checkup will be carried out by the leading instructor which will further define the successive Training process.
