Asana Evolution: A Deep Dive into Modern Yoga
NEXT CLASS - Sunday, March 2, 2:30-4:30pm
"Hip Opening vs Hip Strengthening: What is More Valuable for Your Body?"
Ramsay, alongside Liz and Ben, will dive deep into different practices and teaching techniques involving the mobility of the hip joint and the differences between strengthening the joint and creating more flexibility in the joint. We will practice poses that feature active vs. passive ranges of motion within the hip joint, all of it in order to create greater ease of movement.
Just like everything, aspects of yoga evolve. New ways at looking at anatomy emerge which affects the teaching of sequencing and alignment. We try to stay in the thick of all these yoga conversations. In this eight-month series, Ramsay, Liz and Ben will dive deep into different practices and teaching techniques. With a deep appreciation for the classical poses, we will focus on exploring modern variations to discuss and feel their different benefits. As teachers, we believe that cultivating movement literacy is crucial, developing an understanding of why we practice certain variations of poses based on our individual anatomy. How we move matters. Equally important as teachers and serious students is understanding “the why” behind “the how”. This is crucial to maximizing the benefits and increasing the longevity of your practice.
This series of classes is for you if.... #1 a yoga teacher craving more knowledge since your last YTT (yoga teaching training)? #2 a student who is thinking about a YTT but not quite ready to commit to that kind of money and time? #3 a student who never wants to be a teacher but loves the practice and wants to learn more?
