We explore biotensegrity and the meridian-like scaffolding that myofascial structures provide. Stronger Vinyasa practice is our gateway into this physicality. We’ll reflect on what this means to our practice and teaching.

We explore the meridians of Traditional Chinese Medicine through Yin Yoga, and learn to design Yin practices that target specific outcomes. We marry all our asana practice with extensive breathwork, and reflect on the energetic effects. You will have opportunity to practice teaching the new concepts you’ve learned.

Through our work with asana and breath, we can develop a felt and present body awareness that links understanding, energy, and flow as the body in wholeness. As such, this course also includes a deeper look into the practices of meditation, mindfulness and Yoga Nidra. What is the self under the layers of body and breath? You’ll deepen your understanding of Hatha Yoga subtle body, how this model informs the science of Ayurveda and how to build a health-centric Yoga practice.

You’ll be given opportunities to practice teaching based on these new principles and techniques. There are some assignments to work on for yourself. Through these, you’ll develop your understanding and find way to apply your new skills to real-world scenarios.

Our understanding of the human body and the human condition is changing rapidly. We now know that much of our body support and function comes from the web of fascia inside. And we’ve learned that our emotions and attitudes really are bound up in the body’s physiology. The physical structure and the mind shape each other in a dynamic relationship. Yoga teachers – and anyone diving deep into Yoga – need a platform to learn about and explore this relationship. How can we use the tools of Yoga to make the most of it? Yoga offers lots of techniques: postures, breathing practices, meditation, mindfulness, chanting, study, lifestyle observances. What are the best tools for an individual to use?

If you want to look in detail at these – if you want to develop a practical approach to helping yourself and others – then this course is for you. You don’t have to be a teacher: the main qualification is to come with an open mind and a willingness to learn.
