The Abiding Heart Education™️ approach is centred on transformative experiential contemplative learning for kindergarten through to class 8 and it is also of particular interest to those who seek professional and inner transformation. ​Our courses combine contemplative studies with a transformative and experiential approach to learning that is woven through the Waldorf pedagogy. We offer full-time and part-time kindergarten and primary teacher training, Contemplative Foundation Studies, and also short courses. Our courses are offered as a hybrid of online and in-person classes.

​

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 which are open to all. The curriculum fuses the live experiential contemplative traditions rooted in ancient wisdom which emphasises applying the knowledge acquired to everyday experience, with Steiner/Waldorf methodology and developmental science, giving rise to a unique and transformative children’s pedagogy.
