Philosophy,
Ethics, & Lifestyle:Through the practice of journaling, sharing, and creative expression, we will truly embark on the practice of svadhyaya (self-study), yamas (interactions with our community and the world), and niyamas (personal discipline). Participants will adopt a yogic lifestyle at their own pace and in their own unique ways through the gradual introduction of self-directed options and paths of interest.
Anatomy &
Physiology:
The ancient system of Yoga includes much more than a mere physical
practice. It is ultimately an all-inclusive holistic health program
for life. The philosophy and practices include all aspects of the
human experience, including the mind, spirit, body, and breath. Through
our studies, we will learn how all of these systems connect. We will
study all of the major systems of body function, including muscular,
skeletal, nervous, endocrine, digestion, cardio vascular, lymphatic,
and reproductive. The course also examines the energetic systems of
the body in terms of charka and meridian organization.
Teaching
Methodology:
You will learn quality instruction and teaching skills, including proper
cueing, "Tell-Show-Do" modeling behavior, gentle assists,
and motivational techniques. Upon completion, you will possess the knowledge
necessary to teach a safe, effective, and thoroughly holistic group
yoga class, as well as the skills to gently guide a client in a private,
individualized setting.
Psychology of
Motivation:
We will look closely at different learning styles in order to understand
how to teach to individuals' specific learning modes. Additionally,
we will explore methods of yogic-lifestyle coaching to personalize the
experience of implementing yogic choices into daily life.
We will study the Asanas using the approaches and recommendations given in the Yoga Sutras, especially those sutras that focus on proper practice and contemplation. Particular attention will be paid to each pose using the following method of options:
1.The standard pose for safety of execution by most healthy individuals.
2. Ways and methods of modifying each pose for specific populations and individuals.
3. Understanding the ideal realization of each pose but respecting what is real for each practitioner and practice.
Pranayama:
The yoga teacher training course encourages a great deal of attention
to and practice of the methods of pranayama. The practitioner will
learn a variety of pranayama techniques and exercises systematically
and chronologically from the very simple to the more complex. Special
emphasis will be given to the bandhas and charkas. We will study the
philosophy, anatomy, and energy of breath using many modalities of
yoga styles.
Introduction and practical experience in a variety of sacred chants and meditation practices will be included. We will explore different yogic methods of experiencing sound, space, senses, body, energy, and mind. A strong emphasis will be placed on self-exploration and establishing one's unique individual practice.
