Ashtanga Yoga
The Ashtanga Classes will be happening every other morning. Your Lead Teacher will be there to guide you through the entire Primary Series, offering modifications for the more challenging poses as needed. Ashtanga Yoga Self-Practice will kick off during the third week of your teacher training. During this period, you’ll have the freedom to complete the series at your own rhythm and according to your own schedule. Your teachers will be available to evaluate your alignment and help you delve deeper into the postures if desired.
Ashtanga Yoga and Adjustments
Students will develop a strong practice of Ashtanga Yoga while you study how to adjust each of these postures. Students will learn The Primary Series through a series of Ashtanga Yoga Led Classes and Self-Practices on alternate mornings. The daily Adjustments Workshop will provide the opportunity to learn and practice your alignment and adjustments on each other. Students will then adjust peers in selected morning practices. The adjustments of some popular Vinyasa Flow postures will also be explored.
Vinyasa Flow
Vinyasa Flow allows the body to move fluidly with the breath, flowing continuity from posture to posture. On alternate days, you will be taken on a physical and spiritual journey to achieve a challenging peak posture. The classes will demonstrate our sequencing framework which will then be further explored in Teaching Methodology where you will sequence your own classes. These classes aim to be an example of contemporary yoga as taught in studios today. Classes will incorporate dynamic stretches, myofascial release techniques and functional movement to compliment traditional alignment that will be acquired through knowledge of the Primary Series.
Teaching Methodology
In this module, the primary focus is on teaching the Ashtanga Primary Series, which is the core of our program. You will learn how to guide students through this powerful sequence with traditional alignment principles, breath synchronization, and modifications for different levels. While Vinyasa Flow is also included, the emphasis is on mastering the Ashtanga practice. Peer teaching and practical application in our Vinyasa Flow classes will enhance your teaching skills. By the end, you will confidently lead students through the Ashtanga Primary Series and create dynamic Vinyasa Flow classes incorporating its principles.
Technical Workshops
These workshops are delivered in order to share our practice at Kranti Yoga. On the 300 YTTC, we have devised a series of workshop that will really allow you to advance your physical practice, achieving some of the more challenging postures of Vinyasa Flow. These workshops are 90 minutes long and will take place at the end of the day as your final daily practice. Workshops include: Shoulder Stability; Functional Movement; Inversions; Arm Balances; Myofascia Release; Backbending, Transitions.
Functional Movement
Functional Movement is now an integral feature of contemporary yoga. Students will be encouraged to explore movements beyond the traditions of Ashtanga Yoga. The articulation of the spine, moving through multiple planes, working on the diagonal of your mat, and primal movements, are all components of functional movement. If we go beyond the realms of singular plane movement, we can gain increased strength, flexibility, and range of motion. Functional Movement can also be an excellent means of injury prevention. This is modern yoga, and at Kranti Yoga we are embracing it.
Yoga Philosophy
Students will explore the fundamental concepts of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. This module will guide students to explore different translations and interpretations, looking at the evolution of the commentaries over time. The module will encourage debates on how the mind has evolved through the ages and how we might consider the Yoga Sutras in contemporary society. This module will also include a brief introduction of Ayurveda.
Anatomy Seminars
This module will include a review of the skeletal muscular system from the 200 hour YTTC curriculum and provide the fundamentals to understanding contemporary anatomy as outlined by our 300 hr Yoga Teacher Training Course. Students will review origin, insertion, functionality, and physiology of muscles. This module will look in detail at the anatomy of the shoulder, the hip, spine, and knee joint; with emphasis on developing a safe but challenging practice for yourself and your students.
