Overview:
Advanced Studies I (AS I) is an opportunity for interested and dedicated students to deepen their practice and understanding through exposure to topics only lightly touched on in a ‘regular class’. AS I is not a teacher training program.
Content:
The AS I program provides a solid introduction to the alignment and dynamics of asana (yoga poses) along with the significance of the breath in a yoga practice, to enhance the students’ practices. An overview of yoga history and philosophy as well as both the energetic and structural anatomy of the body to give context to the theory of yoga.
Prerequisites:
Interest in what is ‘behind’ a yoga class. Dedication to a personal practice.
Upon Completion:
Graduates of AS I, are eligible to enroll in the Advanced Studies Level II program.
Students are also better prepared to enroll in the Teacher Training Level I (FYTT I) program, though it is not a prerequisite.
