This 16 hour intensive takes teachers and students alike through the alignment and structure of yoga poses, from sun salutations to final rest. Whether you are a yoga instructor looking to improve your skill in assisting and adjusting student alignment or a yoga student looking to deepen your awareness of your own practice and how your body aligns best in each pose. This workshop will explore both proper alignment techniques and appropriate modifications for almost every pose performed in a typical vinyasa class. Each student will receive a course manual with alignment cues, assisting techniques and photos of each pose.
This intensive is occasionally team-taught with Gary Stucchi. With over three years experience assisting four classes per week at the Baptiste Power Vinyasa Yoga studios in Cambridge and Brookline Massachusetts, Gary has assisted thousands of yogis of all shapes and sizes. A Reiki Master, Gary also brings an energetic awareness to assisting that takes assisting beyond the physical into a deeper spiritual experience for the assistant and the student alike.
Certified Yoga Instructors will receive 16 CEUs towards re-certification.
