The Bamboo Body Barcelona is an educational facility where we are creating the environment for growth and learning. The responsibility of our teachers is to facilitate the conditions for every pupil to evolve in the best possible way. We practice what we preach and aim to provide each person with guidance in their personal journey in this. The learning process is only possible, though, when the responsibility is reciprocal, so we are expecting those who want to become our students to respect the following rules we have established in the facility:
All classes always start on time. Person who comes late to the class will be denied participation. It is a question of respect for your fellow students and your teachers. When you find the door closed after the class started please do not ring the bell. (In the exception to special occasions – in case if something unexpected happened, please warn us in advance, but even in this case maximum delay is 15 minutes)
Adopt the beginner’s mindset – leave your ego at the door.
No phones are allowed in the class.
Immerse in practice – it is the only way to learn in depth. Pay close attention to everything you do, don’t do things half-way and don’t let yourself be distracted.
Quality and work ethics overall. We use so called “pregnancy principle” with our students and ourselves: you cannot be half pregnant, ¼ pregnant, almost pregnant and so on. You either are or you are not. Same thing with work – it is either done or it is not.
· Always stay engaged in the class – do not sit on the floor, do not switch to chatting with a friend, do not skip something because you “don’t feel like it”. Keep yourself focused on the work you are doing and listen carefully to the instructions.
A project is finished for a students when the quality standard is reached, not when we move to another one.
Be a good partner – when working with another person you are taking a role of a teacher for your partner: make sure that you facilitate the conditions for him/her to learn, give a right stimulus and feedback. Don’t try to compete with anyone – it is not what we are looking for.
Nothing of real value can be taught, you can only learn it by yourself. If you want to truly find growth within the practice – make sure you take responsibility for your own projects and weak links. Do your homework.
Use notebooks in all the classes, track your progress and write down all the details.
Please respect the work ourselves and our teachers put into the development of the material we present you - it is a result of many years of meticulous work. If you are interested in sharing it on a commercial base, first consult us if it is okay to do so. Sharing without our consent can lead to banning from our services and the facility.
We are movement facility, not handstand, mobility or gymnastics facility. We are aiming at providing education about MOVEMENT in all forms of it, not only concentrating on the sexy stuff. If you want to learn a specific skill or you have a specific weakness you need to work on – we can offer programming for it that you have to do by yourself.
