This Anatomy & Kinesiology Immersion will help you gain a working knowledge of the major bones, joints, and muscles of the body and how they work together to perform movement and breath. You will learn to identify normal postural alignment, as well as common misalignments and imbalances that occur.  You will learn how to cue your students to achieve a more effective and safe practice. The knowledge gained will be applied through break out sessions and yoga practice.  Through the knowledge gained in this immersion you will  be better able to cater your classes to meet the needs of your students.  Please come with a foundational knowledge of anatomy via the pre-reading requirements below, which will allow you to explore more deeply the information presented while in class.
