Ausführliche Seminarinformationen

To be able to support babies, children and adolescents well in their developmental process, according to their needs, is the goal of C.A.R.E - training in somatic childhood education.

C.A.R.E stands for the following contents: Creativity- Attachment- Resilience- Education. Caring and Care work brings with it the responsibility to support each individual's potential to unfold.
The first language we speak is non-verbal, the language of movement. In movement we learn and develop. Already in utero and especially in the first two years of life, the physiological-psychological foundations are laid for how we stand in the world, act in it, and also how we can experience and perceive the world.

The training modules provide a bodily understanding of these basic developmental processes from the perspective of various somatic methods. Somatic movement practice is combined with pedagogical approaches based on the latest findings in brain research.

200 UE / 6 modules / 4 somatic methods / 3 instructors

This innovative training combines several somatic methods (IBMT; BMC®, INPP, Feldenkrais, Cranio-Sacral Osteopathy, Experiential Anatomy, Authentic Movement) with the latest theory and research on child development. A somatic approach can provide effective and simple support for babies, children and adolescents who are facing challenges in learning, development or emotional regulation, whether big or small. This programme will support you to integrate somatic approaches into your practice, providing  a combination of body awareness and embodiment training with practical somatic exercises and approaches appropriate to specific client groups. 

C.A.R.E is a 200 hour training programm organised into 6 modules.
