Anatomy and Physiology Enhance Understanding of Yoga Asanas

March 15th, 2008 Posted in DURING Yoga Teacher Training

In some ways the Level 1 Yoga Teacher Training course modules have exceeded my expectations. I did not think that we would be teaching yoga so early on and I am amazed at the proficiency with which my colleagues are already teaching and how much progress they have made.

I did think that we would be learning more asanas but limiting the number has made it much easier to feel more comfortable and be more knowledgeable when teaching. I also thought that there might be more emphasis on developing our own yoga practice and that we would get more assistance with improving our asanas - but I realize that this is something that we can spend time on in our own practice.

I am looking forward to doing more of the applied anatomy and physiology so that I can get a much better understanding of how the asanas physically affect people.

I am keen to do as much yoga teaching practice as possible so that I can forget my nervousness and concentrate on enjoying the teaching and giving the students the best possible experience.
