	This training will specifically develop a teacher’s skill in applying yoga as therapy. We’ll look at anatomy, kinesiology, and sequencing, analysis of a student’s presenting problem, understanding the gunas and the doshas for working with students, pranayama as medicine, and the art of developing relationships with students that support health and transformation. We’ll be drawing heavily on the teachings of Ayurveda and physical therapy principles to broaden each teacher’s tool kit. Addressing a student’s stiff neck, for example, may require a structural approach using asana techniques, an Ayurvedic approach using pranayama or body treatments, and/or a mental approach through meditation and self-study.
