Events & Workshops

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  (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 (when its 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.
