Anatomy of Yoga and Functional Movement

The Introduction to Anatomy of Yoga and Functional Movement provides and in- depth study of anatomy and functional movement in yoga postures. Focus is placed on the relationship between action, awakening, contraction, methods of stretching, and movement as well as form and function of the bones, joints, ligaments, and muscles as applied and experienced in yoga poses. These Workshops expand on the postures and concepts introduced in the Refinements in Alignment Workshops with emphasis placed on 1) the science behind biomechanics and physiology and 2) practice and application. Workshops also discuss the benefits, cautions, and contraindications of postures. These Workshops are specifically designed for yoga instructors, pilates instructors, group exercise teachers, personal trainers, or those working in the health and wellness industry.

These Workshops are incorporated into the IDY Registered Teacher Training Program, although participants do not need to be aspiring yoga teachers to participate in the Workshops. To attend the Anatomy of Yoga and Functional Movement Workshops, you must also register and attend the corresponding IDY - Refinements in Alignment Workshops.
