Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher Training Path

Become a Teacher in Mindfulness & Meditation

Are you looking for a mindfulness teacher training course that covers more than just clinical applications, and includes the spiritual dimension?

Do you want to embark on the path of teaching yoga that is truly an endless journey of discovery in yourself and your students?

Are you looking for a training pathway that will allow you to distinguish yourself as an expert?

Do you want to find your Zen way of becoming a Mindfulness teacher?

Do you want to join a community of Zenways mindfulness teachers who are sharing these benefits with others across the world?

Our Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher Training Path is unique and accredited by the International Mindfulness Teachers Association (IMTA).

It was written by Julian Daizan Skinner, the first Englishman to become a Zen Master in the Rinzai tradition of Zen. Our courses retain strong roots in Rinzai Zen, which has a long history of teaching meditation for boosting health and wellbeing, as well as for grounding, insight, and self-understanding.

If you decide to undertake all three modules of our Mindfulness Training path you will become a certified teacher with the International Mindfulness Teachers Association (IMTA).

An overview of our Mindfulness Training Path

Our training path is divided into 3 modules. Module 1 is stand-alone, and modules 2 & 3 are optional extension courses.

Module 1

Here you’ll learn how to offer an 8-week course in Meditation and Mindfulness for Health & Wellbeing, suitable for individuals and organisations. You don’t have to be a clinician – this course is specifically designed to help people deal with their every-day stresses and strains.

Completion time: min 1 year

Module 2
(optional extension course)

Here you’ll learn how to offer an additional 8-week course in Meditation and Mindfulness for Grounding and Insight, suitable for those wanting to move beyond wellbeing into the higher realms of human potential.

Module 3
(optional extension course)

You’ll gain a deep understanding of the history and background of mindfulness, explore working with minority groups, identify your biases and develop your business skills.

  • All the practices taught in these courses are rooted in the centuries-old Zen tradition.
  • Courses run by experienced Zenways teachers.
  • Personal support from a Zenways mentor throughout your qualification period and beyond.
  • Access to our private teachers forum where you can ask questions, chat to others and download resources and support materials.

“The course was well paced, beautifully intense without being overwhelming. I’m surprised by the changes in people throughout the course, it feels like we really opened up.”
