Application to Teach/Present

 

Workshop Presenter Application

UPDATE:  Applications for the 2014 conference will be accepted until June 30, 2013.

The annual Victoria Yoga Conference will combine a mix of asana practices, lectures, workshops, community classes and business classes that are 75 minutes in length.

Selected presenters/teachers will be given a day pass for the conference on the day they are teaching in exchange for their time — and an opportunity to purchase a second day pass at a discounted rate. If travelling from out of town, these presenters/teachers may be provided with travel reimbursement and accommodation, the details of which will be discussed prior to confirming and scheduling.

We hope to offer an interesting and diverse program and provide a broad spectrum of all that is yoga, as well as working with the different levels people are at (beginners, intermediate/advanced students and teachers, as well as the general public, who may be interested in finding out more about yoga).

  • If you are selected as a teacher/presenter for the Victoria Yoga Conference, we will require a headshot (preferably a professionally shot photo) of you for using on the website and promotional materials. The higher resolution that you can provide to us the better. Accepted formats are .jpg, .png, or .gif. If you do not have an image at this time, we can get it from you later, but it is way easier if you give it to us now.
  • It is our goal to provide a strong yoga centered program, along with a business stream of workshops for yoga teachers and studio owners to learn more about marketing, social media etc. to help them run their businesses better. Asana practices and workshops/lectures will be included in the full day and weekend passes. In addition to the above, our goal is to have community classes where members of the community with an interest in finding out more about yoga, specific to an injury or illness, body type, age group (eg. children/seniors) can attend a class and stroll through our Marketplace. Please indicate which area your application is for. You may submit multiple applications if you have more than one subject you wish to share (e.g. an asana practice + a community class)
  • If you are selected to teach/present, please tell us which day and whether you prefer the AM (between 8 am and noon) or PM (between noon and 5 pm)
  • Examples: YIN Yoga, Understanding the Chakras, Mantras for Healing, Partner Yoga etc. This will appear in the conference program.
  • In six to eight sentences, please describe the session you wish you deliver at the Victoria Yoga Conference. This will appear in the conference program.
  • In six to eight sentences, please provide a description of the presenter/teacher. This will appear in the conference program. Please do not include any website URL's, email addresses or contact information.
  • Is there anything else you would like us to know?
  • Each workshop room will be equipped with a sound system and wireless microphone, but would appreciate knowing what other equipment you will require, if you are chosen for the Victoria Yoga Conference.
