Ep. 17: The Language of Anatomy: Body Positions, Laterality and Symmetry for Yoga Teachers Yoga Focus

    • Health & Fitness

In this lecture we will start to learn the LANGUAGE that we need to talk about the body effectively. This includes the body's position in relationship to the floor (or other supporting surface), the way that the limbs move in relation to the trunk, and the symmetry of yoga poses. These terms also give us a new way to think about the way we structure classes and create sequences. 

This lecture is from my online course "Foundations in Anatomy and Body Science for Yoga Teachers" that can be found on Udemy.com at the following link: https://www.udemy.com/user/lauragermanio/ this course is a combination of lectures/slide shows with practice videos to help you fully embody the concepts that are being taught. 

You can also see a sample lecture on my YouTube Channel: LauraGyoga

Note :) All strange background noises are attributed to my dog Redford wanting to be involved. I live in a Tiny House on Wheels that is 192 s.q. feet which creates some challenges in filming/recording content - but it is my experience that there is no ideal environment and there will always be distractions & these distractions are just another opportunity to work on our FOCUS :)
