Body of Knowledge: Functional Anatomy for Yoga Instructors January 10th & 17thTuesday, November 10th, 2009Author: Richelle Ricard For Appointments with Richelle, Please Call: 206.931.2949 |
Yoga teachers today face an increasingly competitive market for their skills and services. While I am a true believer in the fact that there are plenty of students out there for us all, we each need to work diligently to increase our knowledge base and continue to study this art of teaching yoga.
One way to do that is by studying the Human Body. Regardless of your yoga style or technique, the human body remains a constant across all Asana traditions. This class is your window into the workings of this miraculous container we travel in.

But what has developed has surpassed my expectations.
