Project: Curating a Yoga Teacher Training Program
Event: Al-Ula Wellness Festival
In collaboration with the Royal Commission for Al-Ula, we meticulously curated a Yoga Teacher Training Program that reflects the unique cultural and natural heritage of this remarkable region. Our approach integrated insights from local traditions and wellness practices, ensuring that the program resonates with both participants and the community. By incorporating expert instructors and experiential learning opportunities, this program aims to cultivate a new generation of yoga teachers who embody the spirit of Al-Ula, fostering holistic well-being during the Al-Ula Wellness Festival and beyond.
Scope of Work
Needs Assessment & Cultural Adaptation: Conduct a comprehensive needs assessment to understand the cultural and educational requirements of the female residents. Tailor the yoga teacher training curriculum to align with Arabic cultural norms and values while incorporating contemporary yoga practices.
Curriculum Development: Design a culturally sensitive training program that includes theoretical and practical components of yoga, focusing on techniques, philosophy, and teaching methodologies. Integrate wellness practices that resonate with local traditions and preferences.
Instructor Selection & Training: Source and vet experienced yoga instructors with a deep understanding of Arabic culture and language. Facilitate training sessions for instructors to ensure they can effectively deliver the program in a culturally appropriate manner.
Program Delivery: Organize and manage the training sessions, ensuring smooth execution and adherence to the schedule. Provide ongoing support and resources to participants throughout the program.
