Alexander Technique
with: Larissa Makila, MSTAT, Canstat, Finstat
Cost: TBA
Date: TBA

This workshop is excusively designed for yoga instructors to enhance their teaching abilities. The Alexander technique can also be thought of as neuromuscular-skeletal re-education. From a yoga standpoint, it is very common to see individuals suffering from pain actually caused by yoga itself. From the viewpoint of the Alexander Technique, these injuries may have resulted from moving into asanas with pre-existing physical habits and mental striving. The Alexander Technique will help you, as a teacher, to emphasize and help students understand what any given pose is designed to do, what is required to get to the pose, and help students to release and work into the correct places in their bodies.
