Personal Instruction and Starting Fresh

Guiding a yoga practice with the mindset of a beginner, can be daunting and challenging.

Additionally, leading a one-on-one session or a small private group setting, without a clear direction can also seem overwhelming.

Set aside some time to learn techniques for preparation and teaching in these situations. Develop a dialogue with other instructors, with the intention of learning, growing and serving our community.

In this course, plan to:

• learn techniques from Dr. Nathan Mann, DO (family medicine), as well as your fellow instructors, Erin Mann and Maggie Olds on how to take a general body scan, and what can be seen with the “naked eye”  (e.g. shoulders, hips, back, feet, neck, different builds) and how those postural tendencies/misalignments might be present or can be supported in yoga practice

• incorporate the 'yoga' why's into practical daily moments
