This workshop is intended for anyone who would like to present or teach Control-Mastery Theory to colleagues and students



Teaching and presenting can be intimidating but deeply rewarding. For many, teaching is a creative outlet, a place to refine your ideas, and to grow your practice. If you're interested in teaching or presenting Control-Mastery Theory, we'd love to help you get started. Come join us for a three week seminar course on the basics of teaching CMT and then get help workshopping presentation ideas you have. We'll also explore the common barriers to teaching -- stage fright, imposter syndrome, etc. -- and some approaches to mitigate them to get on with the show!
