Anatomy in the Flow
Saturday & Sunday, April 12-13, 10:00am - 4:00pm
in person at Living Water Community Center
✨Have you ever wondered why some yoga classes feel SOOOOOO good and others leave you confused or wanting more?
✨Are you a student who is ready to deepen your understanding of how your body actually moves?
✨Are you a teacher who wants to learn how to create sequences that truly make sense anatomically and energetically?
✨Do you want to know how to practice Yoga in a way that actually prevents injury and builds strength?
✨Are you ready to learn how to offer hands-on assists with confidence and consent?
If you answered YES to any or all of these questions - or if you’re just a big ol’ anatomy nerd and you own it - then this workshop is for you!
Join Amanda Myers, 500hr CYT and Yoga Anatomy Teacher for the Maha Vira Yoga Teacher Training, for an immersive weekend of all things Yoga anatomy - and take your practice, as well as your teaching skills, to the next level.
Both days will begin with an invigorating asana practice followed by space for questions and a short lunch break. We will then explore aspects of Yoga anatomy such as planes of movement, joint and muscle actions, principles of movement, how to build a complete anatomically-based sequence, how to offer alignment and refinement cues, and so much more!
Unique to this offering is an added unit on how to offer hands-on assists safely and with confidence, as well as a discussion on why gaining consent is critical and how to do so in a way that empowers your students, rather than making them feel awkward or left out.
Yoga mats and props will be provided, but feel free to bring your own, as well as something to take notes with. We will have access to a full kitchen if you would like to bring your own lunch and there are also several options close by to grab something during the lunch break.
Investment is $195 for the full weekend and is eligible for 12 continuing education credits through Yoga Alliance.
This offering is intended to be both equitable and accessible, so if you need assistance with the cost, simply send an email to mahavirarva@gmail.com and we’ll work it out
