Laura Humphreys Vinyasa and Ayurvedic Studies Yoga Teacher Training is a collection of knowledge from the different yoga traditions brought together from my experience of the triumphs and pitfalls of over a decade of practicing and teaching yoga. This course is open to anyone who has a passion for yoga and is ready to embark on a transformative journey of self discovery by deepening their knowledge and unravelling the depth of who they are through the practices of yoga and meditation. This course has been designed to provide our students with practical skills to teach bio-mechanically sound sequences, along with a deep understanding of the yoga method, free from the limitations of dogma, to create philosophy infused classes that will awaken and inspire your students to move beyond their self imposed limitations.
Curriculum Overview
Asana Labs
Through Asana Labs our expert teachers will unpack and rebuild yoga postures to help you understand the physical and energetic alignment of the yoga practice, through “blue Print postures” you will understand all necessary components to ensure safety and energetic integrity of each Asana.
Art of Adjusting and Assisting,
We encourage you to build a trusting and supportive relationship with your students as you learn critical alignment and how to assist over asana postures. Adjusting a students posture creates an opportunity to aid them in remapping their neurology, changing or dispersing energy and bringing a sense of freedom to a pose that they may not have alone and helping them move towards that which was previously inaccessible.
Seamless Sequencing and The Tapestry of Cueing
Through the science of vinyasa krama you will acquire the knowledge that will allow you to feel competent to structure safe, seamless, biomechanically minded classes, infused with philosophy and pranic integrity along with equipping you with tools for mastering effective and precise cueing.
Sadhana
Every day will begin with Sadhana (Asana, Pranayama and Meditation practice) allowing you to embody the yoga path and traditions as this is the foundation for spiritual endeavour.
History & Philosophy of Yoga, Intro to Ayurveda, Yoga and the Mind
As a yoga teacher, it’s important to understand the traditional and philosophical context of the practice both for yourself and for your teaching. In this module, you’ll learn about yoga’s ancient origins and how it applies to our modern practices and lives.
Anatomy and Physiology
This is an important part of your training that will give you the understanding of the, functions and systems of the body while applied anatomy will give you the skills when designing seamless, bio-mechanically sound sequences. You will learn how to manage and modify for common injuries and conditions that you could be presented with once you start your teaching journey.
Metaphysical Anatomy
We delve in to the metaphysical aspects of our energetic system, the information stored and processed here, the areas of the body governed and how to apply this to your classes and teachings.
