Format 1.   LearningMethods Online ^TM
  — On-going Distance Learning
 

The first three of these LearningMethods Online distance learning groups have been up and running for a while now.

There has been such a lot of interest from others wanting to join that I am opening up several new training groups to start as soon as possible (probably January 2012).

Each group will be small to allow for in-depth work (between 3-6 people). To join a group, contact me at

New group 1:  In-depth online group in "Anatomy of Wholeness" opening in January 2012. There are some spaces left so if you are interested in joining, there are more details here.

New group 2:  There is also interest in a Professional Level group for Performers and Performance Teachers. If you are interested in joining us, there are more details here.

Who is it for?

The distance learning module is for those who live far from the LearningMethods Centre in Toronto and so cannot make it to regular in-person classes. This program can be combined with the LearningMethods Intensive program (periodic intensive in-person workshops). It is also available for those who live locally but who travel often.

What is it and how does it work?

LearningMethods Online uses online tools to deliver a rich interactive learning experience made up of:

— live video and audio conference call sessions of about 2+ hours each week via WebEx (a private virtual network account with simultaneous live video and audio all handled through your broadband Internet, i.e. no phone-ins). The system also provides a live whiteboard function for drawing diagrams, picture and file display, streaming of audio and video files, as well as the ability to record the sessions for our archives.

— a dedicated (private) group e-mail discussion list for questions, discussion and sharing ideas,

— a dedicated password-protected web site for each group where all the recordings of that group's live sessions, podcasts, webinars, e-mail discussions and resources are archived and available for download and study,

— the web site also hosts a range of resources by David Gorman, other LearningMethods teachers, and other people. These resources include relevant articles, scientific papers, audio and video recordings, etc.,

— periodic audio (and eventually video) podcasts to the group by David Gorman (and other teachers) on relevant topics. These are also archived for download and often transcribed into text,

— a growing library of hundreds of previously-recorded LearningMethods and Anatomy of Wholeness workshops and classes on a wide range of topics available for streaming or download,

— option to attend in-person extensive training sessions and intensive workshops.

— and coming in the future, webinars (i.e. online seminars and courses) available for self-paced study so you can step through learning on territories like our human structure and function (Anatomy of Wholeness), balance and support (Standing on Top of the World), working with performers and performance teachers (Liberating Performers), and other areas.

Three training groups have already started this distance learning module and others will follow shortly. If you are interested in joining one of these new groups, you'll find more practical information here about structure, scheduling, fees, etc. or contact me at and ask me questions about any aspect of the program.
