Soul work/Soul burn

Teacher training

WHat is soul work x soul burn training?

This training is a deep dive into our two signature classes at SoulSpeak Studios. Soul Work is a pilates-inspired, yoga-based, high-intensity movement practice inspired by the chakras. Think freedom in movement, cardio meets strength, and a practice that focuses on diving inward. Soul Burn is our take on hot pilates, focused on low-impact movements that build heat and strength in the body. We use ankle weights, resistance bands, dumbbells and blocks to help find your fire. 

With the completion of this 50hr training, you will be equipped with the tools needed to teach Soul Work and Soul Burn, with a certificate to teach at SoulSpeak Studios. Even if you’re not interested in teaching after, this training is for anyone looking to dive deeper into their movement practice, build community, and understand the fundamentals of alignment, rhythm, creative movement, and meditative/somatic practices.
