despite the anatomy basics, yoga teacher training has so many other areas to focus on that you really need to dedicate separate time to understanding the science of the body [read: the bones & muscles] that make asana possible.
enter: anatomy studies for yoga teachers with jason ray brown.
as a proud recent graduate [the very reason that i have been limited on my posts recently due to diligent studying in my 'free' time], i can attest the value of this investment has afforded me, now that i have a firmer understanding of what the body does, how to work with students who may have certain body-specific issues & a fresh perspective on sequencing, i highly recommend taking the course if you are in nyc.
since everyone is on a budget these days, jason offers the class a la carte or at a discount when you sign up for all three parts (& then there is a payment plan as well)! the course is available as a weekend and/or weekday program over the course of several months depending on how many sections you commit to.
the real deal (if you are in/near nyc):
- 102-hour course with jason ray brown ($1,495 when you pay in full)
now get to class! it starts 9.19.2009.
I've read volume 1 of the key poses of hatha yoga, and it is a great book for yoga teachers and students. Wish I was in NY to take advantage of this opportunity
