SUMMER IMMERSION 2012
Putting Principles into Practice
taught by Leslie Kaminoff & Amy Matthews
Monday - Thursday, August 13 - 16
9:30am - 5:00pm
This 4-day teaching intensive is for experienced educators wishing to advance their teaching skills by delving deeply into the practical applications of the material taught by "Yoga Anatomy" co-authors Amy Matthews and Leslie Kaminoff in their live and online courses.
Leslie and Amy will each respond to questions such as:
"How do I give students breath-centered alignment cues?"
"I understand that we aren't supposed to pull the scapula down, but what do I tell my students to do?"
"How do you teach someone not to hyper-extend their knees?"
"OK… so there's no "right" way to breathe — now how am I supposed to teach breathing techniques?"
"What do you do to help people strengthen their 'core'?"
"How do I help students in a group class find the alignment that's right for them?"
"Where do you start with beginners?"

Flying & Falling: Spatial Vinyasas in the Icosahedron
taught by Amy Matthews
Friday - Sunday, August 17 - 19
9:30am - 5:00pm
This 3-day immersion will explore the beautifully complex and dynamic movement scales (from Laban Movement Analysis) that happen in the icosahedron, the geometrical form that represents relationships between the three planes of movement.
These movement scales challenge us to mobilize our center of gravity and to access a full range of choices in space. Whether performed in micro-movement or full out, the scales reveal our habits and preferences, and help open up new choices in the dance between gravity and space.
There are no prerequisites for this course.
PRICE:
$375 early registration, if paid in full by July 16 / $450 after
