Structural Yoga™, founded by Mukunda Stiles, is based on the Classical Yoga of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, Krishnamacharya’s principle of adapting to the individual, and the spiritual teachings of Swami Muktananda.

Part I: In this experiential training, we’ll explore the functional movements that make up asana. This understanding will lead to greater mastery of yoga asana - steadiness and ease. Teachings and practices to be presented in this workshop:

• Opening and Closing Mantra and Universal Prayer
• Yoga’s spiritual roots - Patanjali’s Sutras for Asana & Pranayama
• Safe Anatomical Movement - functional anatomy through the Joint Freeing Sequence (JFS)
• Learn to develop a keen feel to effectively adapt yoga to individual needs

Come away from the workshop inspired with greater self-awareness—more connected to the teacher within - with great respect and love.

CE credits: Three and one half hours (3-1/2) contact hours

This workshop is beneficial for Yoga Teachers interested in learning more anatomy and how to adapt yoga to individuals, serious students who want to learn more about safe body mechanics and those who might want to pursue teaching yoga.

Structural Yoga Intro - Part I fee: $60. Letter of completion for CEs: $10.
