The Module

This module will give you the in-depth knowledge which every yoga teacher and Yoga Therapy training student should have:

The relationship and vital inter-connections between the different parts of the body, their functioning and possible mechanical and organic issues that might arise, including the manifestation of physical symptoms related to emotional issues.

We will take you through the Yoga Therapy approaches to physical injuries and how to work with students who suffer from musculoskeletal issues.

You will also have the opportunity to apply what you learn to real case studies with clients, including challenging cases.
