COURSE CONTENT
Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is the most popular style of yoga asana practice in the world. This module is based on the postures of the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series and offers the most practical hands-on adjustments techniques for majority of the postures of the Series. Since these asanas are common to other styles of yoga, everyone who takes this course will greatly benefit, irrespective of the style of yoga you practice or teach.
The Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series includes standing, seated, supine and inverted postures. It covers forward folds, backbends, twists and balancing postures. This makes it a very comprehensive and complete inventory of yoga postures. By learning the hands-on adjustments techniques for these postures, you will learn almost everything about hands-on adjustments you will ever need to adjust simple to intermediate poses. (Other modules will cover more advanced and complex postures)
