Vinyasa Flow/ Advanced Hatha
| 
| 
Based on Hatha Yoga asana practices and moving into Hatha-Flow sequences and Vinyasa Flow.
This course is suitable for those serious students of yoga and yoga teachers who are interested in developing a varied, creative asana practice.
The course will include sequencing- how to link postures together on the thread of the breath working to deepen the asana practice.
The development of dharana/ concentration through the flowing practice- one of the benefits of this method of yoga is that it enables you to deepen your concentration- and for teachers to lead a really focused practice session
We will work to understand and approve our own physical alignment, and on how to adapt and adjust the posture of our students while keeping the flow of the class.
The course will also explore the concept of prana- class energy & the energetics of the practice.
You will cover practicing & teaching ujjayi breath, bandhas for lightness in the physical body, for core strength and for increased prana through the spine.
You will learn to teach both beginners- with modification to make the practice accessible for them and intermediate students.
The teachers Laura Gilmore and Scott Hickman are both experienced practitioners and teachers of Hatha and Ashtanga yoga. They both have their yoga "roots" in Iyengar yoga and enjoy combining attention to correct alignment within flowing and creative sequences of postures.
Course dates:
6 days during March & May 2011 (3 days will be over the first May bank holiday weekend)
Cost £525, £475 BCY trainees
