"Anatomy of Yoga" 2: Teacher Training Workshop Series
"Anatomy of Yoga" 2: Teacher Training Workshop Series
This is part 2 in the "Anatomy of Yoga" workshop series to cover the way that the practice of yoga interacts with the body systems - This is where we go beyond just the muscles and bones to understand the organ systems! The information in this course is the basis for progressing your skills to become a more effective yoga teacher.
This course was designed for Yoga Teachers looking to deepen their understanding of body science. This course can also be utilized in your Yoga Teacher Training program (along with part 2 and 3) to fill the required 30 hours of Anatomy and Physiology training.
If you are already a yoga teacher- this is a great way to "fill in the gaps" if the Yoga Teacher Training you attended did not provide in depth information about the body.
I am am certified through both Yoga Alliance and the International Association of Yoga Therapists as a continuing education provider. Continuing education credits (non-contact) can be earned through the completion of this course. Upon course completion you will get a certificate from Udemy that you can submit on the Yoga Alliance dashboard.
This course was recorded LIVE as it was delivered over Zoom- so you can hear the students asking questions in real time. I utilize clear visuals in the form of slides that are provided as a downloadable PDF at the beginning of each section. I also utilize the Complete Anatomy App for detailed "virtual dissections" of the body. The best part is that you can work at your own pace and go back to review any information as needed...an essential part to fully absorbing the complex topic of anatomy.
The Topics Covered in Part 1 of the "Anatomy of Yoga" workshop series are:
- How yoga interacts with the nervous system

The information is conveyed in a way that is applicable to what you do as a yoga teacher and how you can utilize this information to better meet the needs of your students.
