I’m planning to teach the anatomy of the arms and legs through looking at them in a few different yoga postures. We’ll do the postures, look at them, then discuss what’s happening with the joints and muscles. Here are the postures I’m thinking of, (subject to change in the moment if something else seems more apropos):
Tadasana – Mountain Pose, Virabhadrasana I & II – Warrior I & II, Utthita Trikonasana – Extended Triangle, Plank Pose, Chaturanga Dandasana, Bakasana – Crow Pose, Adho Mukha Vrksasana – Handstand.
If all this is Greek to you (it’s really only Sanskrit), don’t worry. You needn’t be a yoga practitioner to participate, and you don’t have to do the asanas (postures). I’m just using the yoga as a starting place to look at the anatomy. I think it will be a fun and meaningful way to teach, and learn.
