Intensive Course - Mindfulness Children Trainer

The intensive Summer School is a six-day programme, taught in English. It is intended for professionals working with children and wanting to teach the Mindfulness Method Eline Snel to children at schools, other institutions, or in their own psychology or other practices. Over six consecutive days, we work on the teaching material belonging to the Course Mindfulness Children Trainer. At the end of this period, participants will begin a pilot Mindfulness training for children aged 5 to 12.

“Participation in the AMT Summer School was an unforgettable experience for me. Meeting people from different parts of the world who want to promote mindfulness among children and young people is enriching and inspiring. Learning from exceptional professionals such as Eline and Mark is an extraordinary privilege for me, and an opportunity to acquire knowledge and skills straight from the horse’s mouth. I will treasure this miraculous experience of fellowship and leadership.”
