Coaching Notes:

Pre-Teach: No
Focus: Internal to begin with, moving into the external focus if you choose to bring them into a circle after a while. External if it’s a welcome into class song.
Purpose: To have time and space to bring the awareness back after the meditation, and also to welcome participants into the space.

Pre-Class-Music Information
A great song to play while your participants enter the space, when you personally welcome them. Turn it off before you start your introduction to the class.

Bring back after stillness
Waking our participants up after they rest in stillness is an important component of the overall experience that should not be overlooked.
We have tons of delicious options on The Groove Academy Online Resources that provide a gentle, relaxing and inspiring wake up.
Be sure to use what we suggest as we’ve found that these song selections work really well.
Pay attention to how you wake your participants up and be sure to give them time to stretch, gently roll their ankles and wrists, or simply lay on one side of the body and come to a seated position nice and slow.
