This three-day anatomy intensive with nationally renowned
teacher, Ellen Heed, is highly experiential with an emphasis
on sharpening each teacher's perceptual skills to better
assess the needs of their students in the environment of a
yoga class. This class satisfies the 20-hour anatomy
requirement for the National Yoga Alliance 200-hour
certification.
The art of assessment is a life-long process by which a yoga
teacher gains mastery and depth as an instructor. Learn some
of the short-cuts to assessment in this fun and highly
informative class about the interrelationship of the Rule of
Four: Biomechanics, Biochemistry, Scar Tissue, and Emotional
Blockage.
In this class, you will learn to perceive:
- How our Emotional Blockage expresses itself as posture
and postural deviation.
- How our Scar Tissue affects flexibility, even at a
distance from an injury.
- How genetics influences our Biomechanics and how to tell
when it doesn't.
- How our Biochemistry (for better of for worse) can
determine the pleasure of our practice.
What to expect:
In this inspiring class, expect to use all your channels for
learning:
- Visual: there will be richly illustrated lectures and
physical demonstrations.
- Aural: we will have lively and intense question and
answer interactions
- Kinesthetic: we will learn hands-on exercises combining
palpation skills and bodywork technique to find out where
emotions affect our energetic systems, and how to get the
most out of the relaxation response. We will also practice
Experiential Anatomy Yoga, taught by Forrest Yoga teacher
Chanel Luck.
What to wear:
Yoga clothing.
What to bring:
A comfy cushion to sit on, 2 yoga blocks and your notebook, a
yoga mat, and snacks to keep your mind alert. This class lasts
for 8 hours each day, so come prepared for massive amounts of
practical information, and bring your very best attention.
