Understanding the anatomy and body's mechanics is one of the essential tools for the yoga practice, as for teacher as for practitioners.
One of the main purposes of this study is to learn and adapt the yoga practice to the structure, condition and limitations of the body. Anatomy will be approached in a very concise way so It will be easier to apply It in your yoga classes.
Learning the function of the body in depth on various levels we potentialise our practice and our yoga classes. With this foundation we can look at yoga in a more therapeutic way and adapted to the individual. We will learn how to apply the adequate adaptations and modifications for all levels of practice and student conditions.
This could also be a way for the teachers to enrich the communication and intervention with their students in the yoga classes.
OBJECTIVES OF THIS COURSE
