The Abiding Heart Education™️ approach is centred on transformative experiential Buddhist learning for kindergarten through to class 8. The Abiding Heart's Teacher Training Centre offers full-time and part-time kindergarten and primary teacher training, Buddhist foundation studies, and short courses. ​

​

The Abiding Heart Education's centre is located in Kathmandu, Nepal and offers both in-person and online courses combining Buddhist teachings with a transformative and experiential approach to learning that is woven through the Waldorf pedagogy. Owing to the global pandemic, all our courses are currently online.

​

The Centre offers kindergarten and primary (class 1-8) teacher training courses (diploma-level and certificate-level) which interweave academic lectures, practical curriculum studies, Himalayan and experiential art classes, meditation classes, and teaching placements. We also offer parts of our teacher training as stand-alone courses available for those seeking professional or inner development. The curriculum fuses the live Buddhist experiential tradition which emphasizes applying the knowledge acquired to everyday experience, with Steiner/Waldorf methodology and developmental science, giving rise to a unique and transformative children’s pedagogy. 

​

The Abiding Heart Education courses are of particular interest to those who seek for inner transformation and to those involved in: teaching and teacher training (kindergarten, primary (class 1-8), middle school, special and inclusive education); children’s social care, child and adult welfare; children’s health care, psychology and therapy; students and researchers of the mentioned disciplines; parents; Buddhist schools around the world; Buddhist monastic schools; Buddhist centres with a children’s programme.
