Important Notes

For teachers:  Learn about teaching from a master teacher!  All classes will be helpful in aiding understanding of sequencing and approaches to poses, and in introducing simple ways of helping students with problems in the context of a regular, mixed level class.  Come learn how to make complex poses simple, and how to work with Yoga’s philosophical principles in the context of asana.
