COURSE CONTENT:

  • Understanding Vinyasa Flow Yoga begins by paying homage to our lineage, which derives from the practical beauty of Sri Krishnamacharya’s teachings. An exploration of Pranams and classical Surya and Chandra Namaskars will form a clear and steady foundation for developing basic and intelligent sequences for personal practice and teaching.

  • Utilizing Krishnamacharya’s ‘Vinyasa Krama’ method we will further develop our understanding of intelligent and purposeful sequencing that honours the natural unfolding of the body in the flow - moving from simple to complex in the practice. Understanding the ‘why’ behind the ‘doing’ will develop skill and confidence not only in your personal practice but also in the creation of class plans and the delivery of your offerings.
