In this training, we explore principle-based therapeutics, meaning that one thing builds on the next. This set of principles or actions in the body will help a number of injuries and imbalances that students may have. Every session includes asana, anatomy, body mapping and how to balance the musculature through yoga postures and healthy movement patterns. You will learn techniques to help students in both classroom and in one-on-one private settings. We look at “inner alignment” or how students align attitudinally, because the outer form always reflects the inner state on some level. You will also learn how to empower your students, – so they can help themselves. Most importantly, together we’ll create a fun learning environment that allows our knowledge and body awareness to flourish.
In this training you will:
- Look at how the small injuries of the body connect to the energy body as a whole
- Increase our understanding of how one set of instructions can help an array of different injuries and imbalanced musculature
- Learn techniques to help students in a classroom setting and in a one-on-one private setting
- Learn how to help your students feel empowered, so they are more open to your help and feel they can help themselves
- Target injuries and imbalances that we see in a yoga environment, such as sciatica, sacral iliac subluxation, low back pain and hamstring tears
- Get a brief overview on how yoga can be helpful for mental health specific conditions.
