Ayurveda & Asana Workshop for Yoga Teachers

The inner wisdom of movement. Learn the why behind your postural offerings and how to organize classes with intelligence: understanding the organs, the way energy moves along the nervous system, and what to offer in each season. For yoga teachers, new and seasoned, who want to bring wisdom-based practices into their teaching.

What this workshop covers

• The doshas and elements: earth, fire, water, ether and air; vata, pitta and kapha
• Prakriti and vikriti: the group class vs. the private class
• The energies: grounding, energizing, cooling, calming and heating
• The vayus: an explanation, plus postures that affect apana, prana, vyana, samana and udana vayu
• The organs and their postures: vata, pitta and kapha organs
• The tissues and their corresponding postures: the first through seventh layers
• The arc of a class: vata-, pitta- and kapha-pacifying class sequences
• The breath and the doshas: pitta-, vata- and kapha-pacifying breathwork practices

A practical bridge between Ayurveda and the way you sequence and teach asana.
