Fundamentals of Embodied Philosophy
A 2-HOUR EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
What is Embodied Philosophy? Yoga philosophy is a guide to how we can think and learn to inquire into the depths of who we are. The philosophy of yoga offers clear and methodical systems and practices to lead us to a direct experience of the nature of life. The philosophical teachings of both the Tantric and Classical eras, are a map that helps us explore the questions: what are we? who are we? why are we?. An embodied approach utilizes these philosophical maps to guide the exploration and experience of the inherent intentions of yoga- to connect with our true nature. In this session we will explore how to utilize the wisdom and context of the philosophy to support each person's unique journey of wholeness, connection, and healing. We can also call on the inherent knowledge of the philosophy to foster honesty, bravery and a willingness to see and feel ourselves as we actually are.
In this session you will learn:
The map and the process for embodying yoga
Practical principles for unifying body-mind-spirit in stillness and in movement
Tools for self-acceptance
Fundamentals of inquiry

Embodied Anatomy Foundations
A 2-HOUR EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
Embodied anatomy is a practice of self-inquiry in which tissues, systems and structures of the body are explored through direct experience. It is a process of bringing together theoretical understanding of anatomical structures with a variety of somatic explorations that support one's ability to sense, feel and move from within. Integrating embodied anatomy into your practice, self-explorations and teaching brings a deeper awareness to each tissue and system of the body, enhancing physiological functions and awakening the body’s innate healing capacities. In this approach you will learn anatomy, optimal movement, alignment, and bodywork techniques from the inside-out.
In this session you will learn:
The difference between studying anatomy and direct experiencing of anatomy.
Five important qualities of touch and touching.
Tools and methods of embodied anatomy and experiential learning.
The fundamentals of applying embodied anatomy to the practice of asana

The Fundamentals of Embodied Ayurveda
A 2-HOUR EXPERIENTIAL SESSION
Ayurveda is a science of living that rests upon the foundations of yoga philosophy. It's a set of tools and practices that support the realization and expression of our wholeness. It's aim is to have us understand at every level of our being (mind, body, soul) that who we are is a relationship -- a delicate and ever changing dance between our internal and external worlds. Ayurvedic wisdom guides us to intelligently inquire into root causes of imbalance (illness and disease), and to use the intuitive knowing of the body to rebalance ourselves throughout the day, year and life.
In this session you will learn:
About the relationship between Ayurveda & Yoga
The Ayurvedic framework for preventing and healing illness and disease
An Ayurvedic approach to embodied living and yoga practice.
How Ayurveda and yoga intersect and support each other
