Dear John, Do you or your students experience pain or pinching sensations in certain Yin Yoga poses? Are there particular poses you find challenging in your Yang (Vinyasa or Hatha) practice? Are you holding yourself back to avoid pain or injury? Do you avoid challenging classes because of such poses? Adjustments come in many forms – physical, emotional, energetic, mental, etc – and we’re always making them, consciously and subconsciously. In José de Groot’s brand new course on the Academy – Adapting Yin and Yang Yoga Poses in a Functional way – you will learn how to modify Yin, Hatha and Vinyasa yoga poses to overcome limitations and avoid injury. This course has been created with the recognition that every body is different. Therefore the ultimate goal is to honour and celebrate the unique nature of your body by making asana practice adapt to and work for you and your students if you are a teacher. Check out our classes below for a taste of what it means to practice functionally! Love, Esther and the team. |
