Certified Teacher Training
Become a Qualified Mindfulness and Meditation Teacher
“We meditate effortlessly— but our daily living must be filled with effort”
Training program for teachers
IFSU maintains since 1976 a training program for teachers of meditation and mindfulness that consists of various modules that are carried out over a period of between 18 and 36 months depending on the previous experience of our students and that provide the necessary skills to teach meditation and mindfulness in various environments and all kinds of sectors of the population.
The degree and certification we offer is recognized in the USA, UK, Belgium, Denmark, Israel, South Africa, Ireland, Spain and Canada.
IFSU certified teachers are trained in the various trends and protocols currently being taught, including the MBSR protocol, Non-Dualism, Buddhist traditions, Christian contemplative tradition, Raja Yoga, Kriya Yoga, Sufism and Hinduism. Our training goes to the essence of these practices over the cultural differences between them and is taught from a non-denominational point of view.
