This course certifies Instructors to teach and examine the skills presented in the Trillium Levels 1 – 6.  The course is intended for candidates who wish to teach synchronized swimming at the recreational, rather than competitive level.  It is a foundation course for those who wish to tap into a creative approach to aquatic instruction.  Candidates who successfully complete the Trillium Instructor 1 course are automatically certified Level 1 Trillium Examiners.

This workshop is not only intended for all certified Trillium 1 Instructors interested in recertification, but also for any coaches or instructors planning to attend any Novice Competitions in the 2010-2011 Season.   A few of the topics this workshop will cover include routine skills, practice plans and teaching techniques for figures.  Instructors of all levels will benefit from this very hands on workshop!
