Language of Teaching
50-Hour Study
TBA
AT BALANCED HOT YOGA Eugene, OR
Two consecutive weekends
Friday evenings: 5:30-9:30
Saturday & Sunday 9am-7pm; break for lunch from 12-1pm
You might find in your teaching that the postures and practice flow easily from
you, but converting a body of movement into words can be daunting! Together we
will work on verbal cue refinement by studying elements of theater to understand
the performative aspect of teaching. We will also explore the language of the body,
of non-violent communication, and the Gardener model of multiple intelligences, all
as means to improve the fluency of verbal instruction. In addition, this course will
offer a no-holds-barred conversation on the issues that come with power and
responsibility around stepping into the seat of the yoga teacher.
Cost : $895

Who are we but the stories we tell about ourselves? This intimate study will deepen your understanding of the bountiful and diverse Yogic vision of the universe; from gods and goddesses to heroes and heroines, parables, trials and tribulations of Indian Mythology.
By cultivating an understanding of some of the history of yoga philosophy and of Goddess-based Tantra Yoga, you will develop a personalized practice and learn to relate these descriptions to your own life’s story. This will allow you, in turn, to help your students live into, and re-imagine their own stories.
