Hands on Anatomy (via an Intro to) Elemental Thai Yoga Massage / Meridians, Elements & Organs
We begin with an Anatomy program created by Paul Grilley. With real, living, feeling, flesh and bone examples, Paul makes it clear that there is no style of asana-yoga that is perfect for everyone; and when we expect students to fit certain pre-set molds or expectations - as if it is "the way" - is asking for trouble. With Paul we learn to approach each person's uniqueness authentically. This is absolutely essential knowledge for teaching a safe asana practice.

Module 13: Sept 30 - Oct 1 / Putting it all Together:
We plan to hold this training weekend at an area camp, as well as open some of our program up to our other studio yogis; as well as any family members or friends you might like to attend. We expect most to stay overnight on Saturday, but you do have the option of going home and coming back early the next morning. Saturday we will have a potluck and Sunday morning breakfast will be provided. Sunday lunch will be something simple as well as all the left-overs from the previous potluck. The whole weekend is at no extra cost to you and just a minimal fee for any friends or family you may want to invite.
​
(We will use some of this time to actually work with people from outside of our training coming to this event as a Yoga Bhoota Camp / Harvest Super Moon Yoga Retreat.)
(We will discuss in a prior training weekend the ways in which we will work with those coming for the yoga retreat.
​
On Sunday we will hold our Graduation Ceremony!
Some family and friends may already be there (if having stayed over from Saturday) while others may come any time they like on Sunday afternoon. The graduation ceremony will be later in the afternoon, but completed before dinner.
