About the Live Teacher Training | Level 4
Building Strength and Helping Your Students Progress With Every Class
Strength is one of the most crucial—and often overlooked—aspects of the Essentrics method. It’s vital for all ages, promoting cardiovascular health, balance, and resilience in muscles, bones, and tissues.
The Level 4 training ties everything together, helping you integrate all that you’ve learned so far into a more progressive and powerful teaching style. Participants learn how to create classes that develop strength and mobility simultaneously while maintaining the fluidity and freedom that define Essentrics.
This 3-day intensive explores the science of strengthening, applying how the body moves, and creating safe, effective movement classes that improve strength, flexibility, and overall performance while helping the body feel balanced and pain-free.
What You’ll Learn
- Hands-On Experience: Over 50 variations of strengthening exercises and sequences on the floor, standing, and on a barre / with a chair that target every muscle group of the body
- Application of Level 4 strengthening techniques
- The function and importance of muscle strength down to a cellular level and how this relates to topics such as healthy aging, weight loss, body shaping, pain relief, athletic performance, overall energy, mobility, and more
- Practical application of anatomy towards targeting and recruiting the correct muscles during Essentrics strengthening exercises
- Why and how Essentrics improves cardiovascular health and increases our metabolism
- Anatomy Understood: Focus on positioning, alignment and seamless transitions
- Why Essentrics is a proven successful training program for athletes in all sports

Why take a live training?

Every training I go to, I learn more about myself, about my body and about how to help other people with their bodies. Then the icing on the cake: connecting with other teachers: for support, ideas, possible gnashing of teeth at times and celebration!

The level 1 live training is the best money I have spent! I honestly don’t know if I could or would have finished. The training is not only so educational, it is so inspiring! For me the training made all the difference.

I thoroughly enjoy the live trainings especially meeting all the master instructors with all the expertise with cueing and watching us to correct us. And all the wonderful people you meet from all over Ontario!
