Yoga Anatomy & Physiology | ON DEMAND
Melanie Cooper | 3 months access | 15 hrs | Price: £195
The human body is a masterpiece of engineering, an absolute wonder of nature and the one true place we inhabit 24 hours a day. This fascinating ON DEMAND course gives essential insight into both Anatomy and Physiology and its application to Yoga. Not only do you learn about the body but essential elements to yogic practice such as the anatomy of breath and bandhas are including on this training. Understanding Anatomy and Physiology is key to teaching and practising yoga safely but also key to understanding the philosophy behind sequencing and alignment. This topic is often simultaneously crucial to study as a Yoga Teacher but also one of the most difficult to grasp due to terminology and working with concepts that may not be part of everyday knowledge. To ensure comprehension this course has been carefully curated as a series of accessible, easy to digest, bite-sized videos to encourage micro-learning, which is known to improve long term retention. Short quizzes after each “chapter” also reinforce and consolidate the teachings,
