The Bones-Anatomy for Yogis
Study and practice of anatomy specifically relating to asana practice.

OVERVIEW~ here's what you'll get from our FANTASTIC program!
Yoga History & Philosophy
What is yoga? This ancient system of health and well-being reveals a path to develop and expand our fullest potential in body, mind, and spirit. We will look at the ancient beginnings of yoga, and understand its journey to the west, utilizing resources such as “The Yoga Sutras” of Patanjali, which reveals the original codification of yoga, and the Bhagavad Gita. We will also study the eight-fold path known as ashtanga yoga:
• Yama – Relationship with Others
• Niyama – Relationship with Ourselves
• Asana - Postures
• Pranayama – Breath/Energy Control
• Pratyahara - Turning the Mind Inward
• Dharana - Concentration
• Dhyana - Meditation
• Samadhi – Bliss
Theory & Practice of Asana
Because of the dynamic, physical nature of vinyasa yoga, we believe that teachers should have a solid grounding not just in the body's subtle-energy system, but in modern anatomy, physiology and kinesiology, as well. Because of this, we will spend a considerable amount of time understanding anatomical and bio-mechanical principles through the lens of hatha yoga postures (asana). In addition, we will explore energetic techniques such as bandhas, dristi, kriyas, mudras, and chakras in order to expand our awareness and understanding of the subtle movement of energy and vital force (prana)
through asana.
Theory & Practice of Pranayama
Conscious breathing requires sensitivity to properly direct life energy (prana), which makes all physical, mental, and spiritual life possible. It is the subtle thread that connects us with universal consciousness. Pranayama is a way of using the breath to receive, generate, distribute, and store this vital energy. We will explore ujjayi (victory breath), nadi shodhanam (alternating nostril), and kappalabhati (breath of fire), sitali (cooling breath).
The Art of Teaching
The art of teaching is yoga in itself, requiring sensitivity, compassion, and practice. A teacher must encourage and inspire, being sensitive to the needs of both the individual and the group. We will help you to develop your own personal art of teaching using the following modules:
• How to properly guide a class using visual (body language), verbal (voice), and
kinesthetic (touch) tools
• Sequencing, counterposes, and creating routines
• Integrating themes, setting a rhythm, creating a focus, maintaining a direction
• Psychology and ethics of the student/teacher relationship
Experiential Learning
We will instill you with the confidence, tools and experience to teach dynamic and inspiring yoga classes for a variety of students. Understanding from within requires the student to not only expand inner awareness and trust of intuition, but also to gain practical experience in the art and science of yoga in a variety of situations and venues. In addition to cultivating a strong personal practice, you will expand your awareness by receiving feedback in real-world situations. To give you this real-world experience, you will:
• Observe, adjust, and assist in class with various teachers
• Develop and execute individualized private lessons, and class lesson plans
• Teach a basic level vinyasa community class
• Give selflessly by teaching at the studio free of charge (known as karma
yoga) |
