The faculty and staff reserve the right to remove trainees at any time if trainee creates an unsafe environment for you or for other trainees, or for any other reason, at their sole discretion.

Confidentiality: There is no client relationship or other privilege that would create a duty rising to the level of clinical confidentiality in this training setting; however, you are expected to respect the confidentiality of other trainees in the group, and your trainer will explain the importance of confidentiality. Trainees who observe a problem with another trainee are expected to bring the problem to the lead trainer or other training staff. Similarly, if a staff member observes an issue with professionalism, they reserve the right to discuss that issue with the lead trainer.

Preparedness for Doing Your Own Work: Throughout the training, you will be expected to participate in working practicum experiences in order to receive the certification. If you are currently in counseling or being treated for a mental health condition, it is recommended that you speak with your provider, alerting them that you are participating in the training.

You acknowledge that everyone taking part in the practicum experiences is new to Dancing Mindfulness and agree to keep the space as safe as possible for all involved. If any problems arise, you agree to address them with faculty or staff members. You also warrant that you are in good enough of a physical condition to take this multi-day training and that if you have any concerns, you have addressed them with your treating physician.
