Section titled “Katharina — 2021-04-18 02:44”Hello Patrick! Thank you, and congratulations on the launch of the new platform! It’s looking great and I can’t wait to explore all of its content and features : )

Section titled “Patrick (admin) — 2021-04-18 18:59”That’s awesome! Please remember that we’re going to continue to feed content into the platform ongoing. So what you see now is just the beginning! Will also look forward to any feedback that you might have so that we can help to support your experience practicing into the future.

Section titled “Katharina — 2021-04-19 06:40”Okay, great!
I hope you don’t mind me spamming you with some questions on here.
First about the platform: I did a FOUNDATION class and got an Activity Point for it, but nothing in “FOUNDATION”. Did I miss-interpret it, or should I have gotten a point or an activity there as well?
Then, you have changed a few forms and a lot of form names. Will there be some kind of update about the changes for those who did the TT ?
Also, I may try teaching some relatives of mine in German. While those aren’t serious lessons I thought I might as well do it right and ask: Are there any guidelines on translating Baseworks into different languages?
Thank you for taking your time to answer all that!

Section titled “Patrick (admin) — 2021-04-21 02:54”Hey Katharina:
Great to hear that you’re getting started. First, yes there have been quite a few upgrades to the syllabus/forms. Also the way that we’ve devised what we called the sessions. For your teacher training specifically and in relation to how one would approach teaching Baseworks for yoga, everything you learned on the teacher training is suffice. But, yes, there will be a different module that we will set up at some point to outline all the upgrades. In the meantime, you can try teaching whom ever you would like to teach based on what you learned on the teacher training. It’s absolutely fine to do it that way for now. For the practice site, just follow along with the sessions. You’ll see that we don’t usually call out the names of the forms in any of the sessions. We’re trying to get people to focus predominately on the movements and the patterns which comprised of practice.
Regarding the activity points and progress, I will look into why those weren’t accurately counted immediately and come back to you. Indeed I can see that they’re actually reflected now. But they really should’ve shown up after the first session. I believe one of the most important things is to make sure that you complete the entire video each time you practice. If you start a little bit into it, for example skipping the ignition, and or skipping the assimilation at the end. And/or stop the video before it finishes playing completely, that may not count the class point accurately. But let me look into the fine details of this with Asia and Satoko.
Please stay posted!

Section titled “Katharina — 2021-04-21 07:02”Hello Patrick,
Okay, great, got it! And sure, my interest in the form names is more for personal notes and communication matters than for practice or teaching. Therefore it can wait.
About the activity points, I have another clue for bug fixing: I did another ELEMENTS class today and got, again, 1 ELEMENTS and the 1 FOUNDATION point. So that’s no points for doing FOUNDATION, one point each for doing ELEMENTS.
Good luck with the fixing and have a nice day!

Section titled “Patrick (admin) — 2021-04-21 15:34”Got it! I should have mentioned yesterday, that we really want to focus on Baseworks as being a conditioning method moving forward, trying to really differentiate its relevance to practicing and teaching Yoga. if Baseworks specifically is something you really have an interest in teaching moving into the future, aside from Yoga, then please let me know and we will outline hoe to get access to the updates presented here faster. In the meantime, please do indeed make reference to how you learned on the TT for your practice teaching structure!
I will let Asia know about the points!

Section titled “Katharina — 2021-04-22 04:37”Yes, that would be great! My interest in teaching Baseworks is indeed much bigger than in teaching Yoga. And, okay I will do so in the meantime. Thank you!
