Experience as a Student: Before facilitating, it's essential that you participate in at least one Body Temple training as a student. This firsthand experience is critical for gaining a deep understanding of the curriculum and the experiential flow of the program.

Assisting Roles:

First Step in Facilitation: Assisting at a Body Temple training is your initial step towards becoming a facilitator. This role involves supporting the lead facilitator, managing logistical aspects of the workshop, and engaging with participants in a supportive capacity.

Hands-on Learning: While assisting, you'll observe and learn the nuances of workshop management, including how to handle group dynamics, participant engagement, and the pacing of activities.

Application of Learned Skills: This role provides a practical opportunity to apply the skills and knowledge you've acquired throughout the program. As an assistant, you will implement your understanding of facilitation techniques, participant interaction, and content delivery in a real-world setting.

Transition to Leadership: After successfully assisting in at least one training, you will co-facilitate a subsequent workshop. This role is more involved, requiring you to take part in delivering content and leading sessions alongside Veronica or another senior facilitator.

Development of Facilitation Skills: Co-facilitating provides you with the opportunity to apply your learning in a real setting, develop your teaching style, and receive direct feedback on your facilitation techniques.

Gradual Increase in Responsibilities: As you gain confidence and skill, you will lead sessions more independently, eventually moving towards leading entire workshops or segments of the Body Temple curriculum.

Capability Demonstration: This stage is crucial for demonstrating your ability to hold space, manage energy, and provide valuable insights to participants, all key components of effective facilitation.

Continuous Improvement: Throughout your journey from assisting to leading, you will receive ongoing feedback and mentorship. This guidance is tailored to help you refine your approach, enhance your presence as a facilitator, and ensure you are effectively embodying and transmitting the teachings of the Body Temple.

Building Your Profile: You will be involved in promoting the trainings and engaging with the community to build your visibility and credibility as a facilitator. This includes leveraging social media, participating in community events, and networking with potential participants.
