This training features the combination of therapeutic yoga postures and manual therapy. Our overview investigates how to build sensitivity and a quality of “listening” in one’s hands. We will then review the key points and principles behind making adjustments in order to help position students further into a pose. Using restorative poses such as supta baddha konasana, viparita karani and balasana we will look at ways to increase range of motion and release stress via hands on contact. We also utilize release techniques on acupressure points from Chinese Medicine and marma points from Ayurveda. Included is a guided practice of learning to use tuning forks to conduct therapeutic resonance into bone.?The art of teaching is in offering smart sequencing. We investigate pacing, length of holds, how to sequence using props, and combinations of postures in sequence. We cover “faux-pas” in sequencing and how to structure a class from a theme using continuity, preparatory sequencing and posture combinations. We review the importance of the opening and closing of a class. In our Principles of Sequencing we cover vinyasa, sequencing on and off the mid-line, combining symmetrical and asymmetrical postures, combining compressive and de-compressive movements and more. Morning classes review active sequencing and afternoon classes review how to sequence restorative postures, sequences for beginners and somatic awareness sequences.
