HANDS-ON ANATOMY COURSE IN CHICHESTER!

Hands on Anatomy Retreat and Training with Christine Becker and Denise Hopkins

Have you finished your yoga teacher training and yet still feel like you don’t really know how to use your hands?  Do you want to learn how to use your hands confidently in a supportive environment?  Practical Anatomy and hands on assists  are crucial for building your class size and facilitating healing in your students.

Hands-on Anatomy

Join Christine and Denise for the most exciting and practical clinic available. Hands-on Anatomy is the only clinic in country that combines assists with the anatomical knowledge to truly understand the movement you are creating.

This innovative class will combine academic anatomical study with clinical practicum in observation and hand-on assists.  Students will study different regions of the anatomy  and then observe individual variation and how each individual’s movement preferences form a coherent whole.  Students will develop an in-depth understanding of human structure and movement potential. You will enrich your skills as teachers and learn how to facilitate greater strength and flexibility gains in your students.   This class is exploratory, engaging and FUN!  This is offered exclusively at Chichester Yoga and only once in 2012 so sign up while there’s room.

ANATOMY OF ASANA WORKSHOP
with Christine Becker
October 2nd, 2011, 3:0-5:30 $35.00
@ Euphoria Yoga in Woodstock
REGISTER: info@euphoriayoga.org

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.
