FOR THE MOVEMENT CURIOUS

The Misftimethod Movement Training is for anyone seeking to deepen their personal movement journey, whether you're an aspiring movement guide or a seasoned instructor. This course has been created to refine and elevate your teaching abilities, and develop a deeper connection to self.

If you're drawn to the art of poetic and mystical language, seeking to design thought-provoking movement experiences, and eager to expand your understanding of movement, this is your opportunity to thrive. Join us and unlock the transformative power of movement in both your practice and teaching.

Elevate your teaching language and refine your techniques, empowering you to guide movement with clarity and precision. Learn how to seamlessly weave together cues for alignment, intention, and mysticism to journey beyond physical movement, and inspire inner transformation and collective connection.
Music is an imperative element in this method. It synchronizes movement to breath, breath to rhythm, and it allows every BODY in the room to feel connected to themselves, to each other, and to acknowledge the energy that surrounds us.
Through rhythmic exercises and demonstrations, you will learn to identify and feel into the different layers of music, confidently choreograph classes and synchronize movements to music. Additionally, you will receive access to playlists curated by Amber, both some of her favourite songs to teach to and how to organize by BPM music in categories for ease of playlist creation.
Enrich your classes with an expanded repertoire of movements and shapes, ranging from classical and modern pilates, dance sequences, and unique flows developed by Amber herself.
You will learn to teach 7 original, 1 hour, Misfitmethod classes. Each class outlined in a booklet form, with imagery and prompts for Who, What, Where, WHY and What is moving. Additionally, you will receive 4 movement decks, inspired by tarot, that display 60+ unique movements with prompts and suggested cues. Both tools are designed for you to use as a teaching tool and to inspire future sessions.
As a guide, your journey shapes the path of those you lead. In this immersive 50-hour course, you'll not only gain the tools and expertise to teach the Misfitmethod but embark on an inner exploration inspired by the transformative magic of this movement. Deepen your connection to intuition, clearing energy blockages and embodying your true self as a facilitator.
The Misfitmethod is more than a physical practice; it's a holistic experience that untangles the patterns within our physical, emotional, and energetic bodies. It guides us back to ourselves, fostering connection and presence, empowering us to stabilize amidst life's fluctuations. Through this journey, we learn to listen to our intuitive voice, moving with strength, grace, and mindfulness. It transcends mere movement, evolving into a profound dance of self-discovery.
The most successful and powerful teachers are true to themselves, and teach from an authentic place. This method is meant to inspire YOU to uncover YOURSELF. We encourage you to dance through the fears that may show up, do the hard work to get to know yourself, find your voice and teach meaningful classes that inspire people to OPEN their hearts, minds and bodies.
On Day 1 we begin practice teaching in pairs and by Day 4, leading in a group setting. While this can be intimidating, it encourages us to move beyond fear and truly integrate the lessons, feedback and guidance that are arise during this course. You will have the opportunity to design and present a 10 minute Misfitmethod-style sequence, set to intentional music, movements, and storytelling of your choice. Feedback will be given to help you refine your unique offering beyond the course and deep into your future

TESTIMONIALS

BRIANA

When I reserved my spot in the Misfitmethod Movement Training, I had the expectation of expanding my movement repertoire and becoming more comfortable in my own body with alternate forms of movement (especially dance) with the intention of bringing this offering to the studio I’m employed at. I had no idea I was in for an utterly transformative experience. ⁣ The training truly re-ignited my inner flame that has been burning at a mere flicker for quite some time now. Amber’s ability to connect to every individual in the training sessions is remarkable. It’s as though she’s able to feed each person’s soul with just what they need at this time in their lives through her magical craft. ⁣ The training is well thought out and gives the student the right amount of time to practice each module. Amber’s passion is infused in her presence, her words and teachings, as well as the beautifully presented materials – the flashcards are a tool that I will have forever and allow me to easily input the Misfitmethod into any movement class I teach. I have the utmost gratitude for Amber and her method.

MONIQUE

The Misfitmethod Movement Training was absolutely brilliant. It’s fluidity of shapes combined with fun flowing music that peels off the layers of our conditioning, diving deep into our inner knowing into the rawness of our being. Freely expressing and losing ourselves into the moving and dancing but also toning and strengthening our bodies. ⁣ The quality of the materials that were provided, the exploration of the movement and poses, the practice teaching, the safe container that was provided throughout this training, it was everything and more you want to experience in a training. ⁣ Amber you are one of a kind goddess, you created an experience that I will never forget. Thank you!

ALEXANDRA

I cannot recommend this training enough. As someone just starting my journey as a movement guide, I am incredibly grateful to have begun my training with Amber. Her attention to detail in both instruction and feedback, particularly when it comes to alignment and cueing, helped me build a strong foundation for teaching. Her ability to create a safe and supportive space for us all to learn and grow, while simultaneously pushing us (just the right amount) to discover and trust ourselves, created a truly transformative experience. ⁣ I left this training with confidence in my voice, a new repertoire of movements, better sense of rhythm and beat and how to use music to deepen a movement experience, a refreshed connection with myself and my body, and a vocabulary that brings a mystical element to my teachings. ⁣ Amber is a living and breathing embodiment of her movement practice. She is like a guiding light to what is possible when we truly allow ourselves to be free in our own bodies. I am eternally grateful for her wisdom, support and love.
