This immersion is open to all levels and is available to students either à la carte or as part of our multi-module teacher training program. Space limited, sell out risk high.

Join faculty guest expert, Nichol Chase for in-depth instruction and exploration into the world of Asana and functional anatomy. The yoga poses are complex physical and energetic expressions of the practice. Practiced properly, they can help us remain physically strong, flexible, and overall healthy. Over time, they may also reveal where we harbor imbalance and help us cultivate congruency in the body. Throughout this intensive, we will explore, learn, and discuss all families of asana, including standing poses, seated poses, backbends, twists, and inversions/arm balances. You will develop an understanding of the architecture of the body as it relates to the poses, through anatomy training, coming to appreciate the global landmarks and alignment of the body while also developing refined awareness around the uniqueness of different bodies. You will have the opportunity to learn verbal and physical assists, when to offer them, and how they may help.

Each day will include:

- Vinyasa flows that support learning the family of poses explored that day

- Lecture/discussion/visual aids

- Hands-on assisting workshops

- Investigating the different modifications (how to support in a pose that is challenging) and variations (how to move the pose to the next level)

- Dedicated anatomy instruction

- Identifying intelligent and appropriate alignment of the poses for varying levels of practitioners with varying physical capabilities.

- Learning to teach the poses and become your own best teacher
