Teacher Training: Level 1 Online Full Tuition – Fall 2025
Original price was: $4,500.00.$3,000.00Current price is: $3,000.00.
Acknowledgements:
Our training method focuses on the optimal function of the body. We fully acknowledge that part of your experience may be one of pathology, or trauma. If you have questions or need support during the training we hope you will seek the support of a qualified counsellor/psychologist or physical therapist. As there are as many experiences of the body as there are people in the room, we endeavor to stay clearly with embodiment and knowledge of optimal imagery around the structure of the anatomical body.
One of the most valuable and nourishing aspects of the course is our mentoring program. Every student is paired with a member of the Franklin Method® faculty at the beginning of the course. This faculty teacher will act as your mentor throughout the program – meeting with you in small groups once a month, offering answers to your questions, providing feedback on homework, and accompanying you on this wonderful journey.
You will ideally be connected to a mentor with a similar professional background. This mentorship will help you integrate your Franklin Method® learning into your specific teaching discipline – whether it’s dance, Pilates, yoga or something entirely different. Your time zone will also be taken into account to ensure the mentor meetings take place at a comfortable time for you. You will also have the opportunity to change mentors before the course begins if the mentor group we select isn’t quite right for your needs.

First and foremost, after completing this course you are entitled to practice as a Franklin Method® Educator. In addition, this course is particularly popular with already qualified therapists, exercise educators and yoga, Pilates, sports and dance teachers. Why?

Yes! Although we have arranged the sessions to be accessible to as much of the globe as possible, we appreciate that the timing is difficult for students in East Asia, Australia/NZ and the Pacific region in particular. Many students in this part of the world have graduated successfully with us in the past and we are happy to allow you to attend the course through replays. In this case, we would place you in a mentor group that is suitable for your time zone – and attending this group live would be a requirement for taking part in the course.
