The Breath-Centered Method: Hatha Vinyasa Krama

Covers sequencing, teaching techniques, cueing, imagery, Sanskrit terminology, and meditation.

Emphasis on special populations, student teaching, and feedback. Requires 5 hours of co-teaching/mentoring.

This module is culmination of the previous modules to prepare you to assess, intelligently sequence, and deliver a yoga class in hatha vinyasa krama with pranayama, asana, and meditation. You will practice the Sanskrit names of common poses and their English equivalent with directional terms to transform language into a meaningful yoga experience for others.

History, Philosophy, the Yoga Lifestyle

This class presents an in-depth study of the role breathing has on the yoga experience, including vinyasa, mantra (sound), and kriya (purification). We will challenge our breath for endurance, as appropriate, and for stress reduction in asana and meditation. In addition to breathwork, this module covers the history of yoga from the Vedas to Patanjali, the yoga family tree from the grandfather of modern yoga Krishnamacharya and his son TKV Desikachar, and other classical yoga lineages. Includes a 90 minute guided class each week, and several documentaries including Breath of the Gods, and Yoga Unveiled: The Evolution and Essence of a Spiritual Tradition.

The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali

Students will be led through selected reading and chanting of the Yogasutra of Patanjali using Frans Moors book, Liberating Isolation, and related commentary. For further study, we use selected readings from Teaching Yoga: Exploring the Teacher-Student Relationship by Donna Farhi which underscores the importance of consistent practice and the sacred nature of the teacher-student relationship.

Mentorship:

20 hours of co-teaching and/or supervised teaching outside of class.

This class is established through the foundations of Usui Japanese healing and independent energywork using Soul (rei) energy (ki). Attuning to Reiki significantly improves your ability to sense and utilize energy, improve health, and focus your intentions. Students will learn and practice eight symbols in a hands-on self-healing protocol, receive a personal healing treatment, give a treatment to others. Level 2 reiki includes sending reiki to others and empowering goals. We conclude our training with a crystal bowl and sound healing play-workshop, vegan potluck, and closing circle.
