What if you could look at a student's posture and know exactly how to support their unique structure? The Literate Teacher workshop is designed to help yoga teachers and dedicated practitioners become adept at reading the body’s unique anatomical stories. Through interactive discussions and practical exercises, we’ll explore skeletal variations, personal alignment, and the anatomical foundations that make each person's movement unique.
In this 3-hour workshop, you'll:
- Learn to identify key skeletal and structural variations and understand how these impact alignment in common yoga poses.
- Gain confidence in offering cues that honor individual bodies, making your teaching more inclusive and impactful.
- Build your "anatomy toolkit" with insights on reading alignment from a supportive and adaptable perspective, refining your approach to each student’s unique needs.
This workshop is ideal for those wanting a more inclusive and insightful approach to teaching and practicing yoga, where the focus is on real bodies and real movements. Join us for an evening that will transform how you see and support your students.
