Advanced Class 4: Listening to the Responses in the Body

Info

The better we can listen to ourselves and observe ourselves the better we become as teachers.

Advanced Class 4: Listening to the Responses in the Body

In this standing asana class we will pay a lot of attention to the arms. We will be using a belt to hold the arms in place so that we can observe what proper arm activation and integration can bring to other areas of the body, how it can contribute to the integrity of the pose as a whole. Working with a belt can also be very therapeutic for the arms and shoulders.

When practising yoga, we have to always remember to look for the reactions to our actions. That way we remain aware of whether an action is good or not, whether it’s useful or not. The better we can listen to ourselves and observe ourselves the better we become as teachers.
