THEORY AND PRACTICE
20-hour Teacher Training Certification
ITINERARY (subject to change):
Wednesday, January 21, 2009, through Saturday, January 24, 2009
10:00 am - 4:00 pm
One hour break for lunch each day
THE WORKSHOP
Learning to apply the physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of Yoga as a modality of healing is a highly specialized and difficult art. It includes the judicious application of scientific knowledge, intuition, psychological understanding and solid experience. We can teach the intellectual aspects of Yoga therapy, but the intuitive aspects come from one’s own consistent practice.
This teacher training course will introduce the basic concepts of Yoga Therapy, address “therapeutics” in the widest sense, and introduce such concepts as taking a history from the student, suggesting asana for specific problems and evaluating outcome, as well as learning to be present with the whole person asking for help. The course format will be based on asana practice, discussion, observation of others working as well as on hands-on application by each participant. Limited discussion with the most time spent utilizing hands-on application.
Teacher Training Intensive and Certification is for all interested students, and is designed to enrich dedicated practitioners, aspiring teachers, or those already teaching.
Certificates are included for participation in all contact hours.

MASTER CLASS
Freedom from the Hip Joint: Master class offering asana practice and discussion
ITINERARY (subject to change):
Sunday, January 25, 2009
9:00am - 12:00pm
THE MASTER CLASS
The hip joint is our key joint for standing and walking. It is also the key joint for most yoga poses. In this class we will discuss the basic anatomy of the joint, its normal range of motion, how individual differences shape our yoga practice, which poses are useful for stretching it, and what makes “opening the hip” difficult. Using movement principals, therapeutics and applied asana practice all students and teachers will begin to learn to approach personal practice and teaching with more knowledge and compassion. Bring all your questions.
This class will be geared more for advanced practitioners and teachers and those wanting to deepen their yoga practice and knowledge. Participants should have a minimum of one year active yoga practice.
Certificates of completion are available for $5.00.
