Taught by Marcia Miller, IAYT Certified Yoga Therapist, ERYT-500 Yoga Teacher
Studies show that over 80% of Americans will suffer significant back pain in their lives. And people with back pain say Yoga helps them more than any other single modality, including surgery and other medical care. This workshop will teach you
relevant anatomy of the spine and hips
principles and techniques of yoga therapy that help your students with back pain
a basic series of poses that are great for beginners with (or without) back pain
several bonus poses to offer anytime someone is in back pain
sitting, standing, and walking to support the health of your students and minimize back pain
several relaxation setups to help students be comfortable in savasana, since relaxation is so critical to back pain relief
This class will be a mixture of lecture, discussion, and practice (including supporting each other), and you will leave with practical knowledge you can utilize right away. This training assumes you are already at least a 200-hour trained yoga teacher.
This workshop is available in person as well as livestream. Video recording will be available for 3 months. 10 hours of CEs available through Yoga Alliance.
