    Description
    Students continue to build upon fundamental skills by applying an assortment of ancient yoga techniques to enhance wellness and well-being with greater focus and specificity using more rigorous vinyasa, aerial yoga, and acroyoga therapeutic practices. Students will progress from basic to more advanced yoga postures (asana), breathing techniques (pranayama), and meditation techniques (dhyana) while also gaining greater awareness of ancient systems of the history, language, and practice of yoga. In this course students explore ancient systems of yoga practice in light of modern interpretations. The course presents an evolutionary approach to yoga asana (physical postures), pranayama (breathing), philosophy, and meditation. The emphasis is on application and theory through practice, discovery, reflection and discussion.
