Then we explore the "Types of Yoga," detailing various styles like Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Yin and more, each offering unique benefits and practices.

Finally, we tap into the "Functional Yoga Medicine Philosophy," an approach integrating yoga with functional medicine principles. This philosophy emphasizes understanding the interconnectedness of bidy, mind, and spirit in health and healing, aiming to tailor yoga practices for therapeutic and personalized wellness solutions.

Module 2 offers a comprehensive introduction to human anatomy relevant to yoga. We begin with the "Anatomical Position," establishing a standard for body alignment.

This is followed by an "Overview of the Muscuskeletal System," linking bones and muscles in movement.

The module proceeds with a two-part "introduction to the Muscular System," detailing muscle types and functions. This training concludes with "Types of Joints," examining different joint structures and their roles in facilitating body movement and flexibility.

Module 3 delves into the foundational elements of human anatomy and movement, crucial for understanding yoga and physical training. It starts with anatomical terminology, providing essential vocabulary for describing body parts and positions. We then go into the range and types of body movements.

We explore "Motor Learning Theory," exploring how people acquire and refine movement skills, offering insights into effective teaching and practice methods in yoga and physical training.

Finally, we focus on evaluating individual physical capabilities and limitations, critical for tailored yoga practices.

Module 4 is an engaging and dynamic part of the course, where you get the opportunity to learn a complete "Hot 75" yoga sequence. This module not only teaches the specific poses and flows that make up this sequence, but also gets into the underlying reasons and techniques behind each element.

It's designed to provide a deeper understanding of how and why these sequences are structured as they are, enhancing both the practice and teaching of this specific style of yoga. This module is particularly exciting for those looking to expand their knowledge and skill in conducting comprehensive, fluid yoga sessions.

Understanding the foundations of this sequence will help you create your own yoga sequences later on.

Module 5 focuses on the mental health aspects of yoga, particularly its impact on brain health and stress management. It starts by exploring how yoga and mindfulness practices positively affect brain health, enhancing cognitive functions and emotional well-being.

The module also delves into yoga's role in stress reduction, examining how these practices help manage and alleviate stress. Additionally, we cover the benefits of meditation, highlighting how regular meditation can improve focus, reduce anxiety, and foster a sense of inner peace, making it a vital component of holistic health and wellness in the context of yoga practice.

The EASE Methodology is a holistic approach in Functional Yoga Medicine. Integrating the principles of functional medicine with the holistic practice of yoga, our unique approach emphasizes enhancing overall well-being through a focus on gut health. By specifically targeting the enteric system with tailored yoga asanas, we address both physical and mental health aspects.

Complementing this, we utilize breathwork and meditation, alongside functional medicine insights, to achieve balance in the autonomic system, fostering inner tranquility. Our methodology also prioritizes somatic consciousness, merging the mindfulness of yoga with the bodily understanding provided by functional medicine, to cultivate resilience and promote healing.

Lastly, we aim to empower individuals by blending the wisdom of yoga and insights from functional medicine, enabling them to make informed health decisions. This integrated approach ensures a comprehensive journey towards health and wellness.
