Ep 65: Learning Anatomy Feels Overwhelming, Start Here!

from Essential Conversations for Yoga Teachers · host Monica Bright

I wholeheartedly believe every yoga teacher must have a working knowledge of anatomy, it is the responsible thing to do because you're teaching movement and working with bodies. Your students trust you, therefore you should be well-educated. It doesn’t matter if you teach vinyasa, or yin; meditation or pranayama… understanding why a student might be uncomfortable in a seated cross leg position is important.Why does that hurt? What life experiences may have led to this pain? Is there anything you can do about it? Get your journal for this one because you’ll want to write down these steps I’m going to walk you through to finally get a handle on anatomy.I can't wait for you to listen!Ep 64: Sequencing for Students with Rotator Cuff InjuriesClick HERE to send me a text & let me know your thoughts on this episode!
