Integrated Online School of Hatha Yoga with Jon Witt IAYT- 500 ERYT
PREMA YOGA THERAPEUTICS ESSENTIALS
PYI's Signature 100-HOUR ONLINE PROGRAM
INTRODUCTION
Let's face it - everybody ages! But as the Baby Boomers hit 65, our yoga teaching must respond to this "Silver Tsunami" for us to remain effective and compassionate yoga professionals. And when an injury occurs to you or your client, are you prepared to teach your students - or even continue your yoga practice - once cleared by a doctor for exercise?
Yoga for All Bodies is an immersive two weekends of approachable anatomy review, practice teaching and practical hatha yoga skills. Learn how to teach chair yoga and freeing asana at the wall. Dive into an overview of common ailments, and when and how yoga is a phenomenal compliment to medical care. Dive into learning about the number-one ailment in the U.S. - low back pain - and what gentle asana is often recommended. Become better adept at "reading bodies" to modify your teaching effectively.
Our intention is that you complete the training better prepared to meet the needs of aging or formerly-injured clients with precision and care. PYI is a supportive community of yoga pros - all are welcome here!
