Accelerated Program Overview

The Budokon Academy Accelerated Program (AP) is a 200-hour / 4-weekend intensive course offered to qualified international and out-of-state students who do not have access to a certified Budokon Academy Training center in their area. Open to all belt levels, the Academy Accelerated Program is held at Budokon International Headquarters in Miami, FL and is taught exclusively by Kancho Cameron Shayne

Who should join the AP?

Serious students who are familiar with the Budokon system (either through Budokon Conditioning Classes, Budokon DVDs, or Budokon workshops) and would like to take their practice to the next level.
Anyone with a background in yoga, martial arts, dance, gymnastics, or other movement art who is interested in moving and thinking in new and inspired ways.
International or out-of-state students who do not have access to a Budokon Academy training facility in their city or country.
Serious students who can devote a minimum of four weekends of their time and resources to travel to the Budokon Academy Headquarters in Miami, FL.
Students who are interested in a future career as a Budokon Teacher.

NOTE: The AP is not a Teaching Certification program, but rather a stepping stone towards certification. To receive a Professional Teacher Certification the student is required to attend a separate Professional Teacher Training Conditioning Course after achieving a red belt or higher rank. Visit the Teacher Training section of our website for more information.

AP Curriculum

In the Accelerated Program, our students learn to master the 6 pillars of the Budokon system in a condensed 4-weekend format:

Thoughts
Emotions
Relationships

Environment
Nutrition
Fitness

Under each pillar, we cover a wide variety of topics including brain development, language, cognition, belief systems, communication, relationship patterns, physiology, dietary guidelines, environmental sustainability, meditation techniques, yogic asana, martial arts standing and ground techniques (including striking, throws, and submissions), the Budokon Animal series and much more. As you progress in belt rank you will build upon the base knowledge you have learned from the previous work.
