Embodying the Flow is open to intermediate students and aspiring teachers to experience the essential teachings of vinyasa – much more than a technique or style of yoga. This weekend is a paradigm-shift into experiencing the currents of prana as the underlying moving intelligence guiding the flow of our body, practice and life.

  • Universal Vinyasa – the cycles, sequences and patterns of nature
  • Yogic Embodiment and the five movements of prana underlying all of the asanas and movements of nature.
  • Learn Shiva’s innovative “Wave Sequencing™ methodology and apply it to teaching.
  • Learning energetic alignment and hands-on assist for 14 core asanas of sun salutations
  • Learning classical namaskars and Shiva’s innovative dancing warrior and rhythmic vinyasa sequences that are practiced around the world
  • Solar and Lunar Practices – Learning class sequences to creatively adapt to all levels and energetic states.

Required Reading & Materials:

View and become familiar with Shiva’s DVD “Yoga Shakti” – understand and know how to teach all of the Namaskars and write a teaching script for each one.
