Deceptive Flexibility

• October 15 - 17 2012 Exton PA

You may have some students who are able to move very far into poses without effort—maybe even further than you! But they could be paying a very high cost for this deceptive flexibility. Their spinal muscles work overtime and their hip ligaments are over-stretched so they can move into those extreme angles. This ultimately causes an instability in the hip joints and tremendous spinal compression, which can lead to early hip replacement surgery, arthritis in the hips and/or spine, and serious digestive problems.

Svaroopa^® yoga provides the tools to help them heal the damage they are unknowingly causing. This course will teach you how to spot hyperflexible students, how to prop them (or yourself!) for maximum effectiveness, and most importantly, how to work with their minds to transcend the "picture perfect" paradigm they've brought from dance backgrounds, other yoga styles, or athletic practices.

Successful completion of this course will maintain your Current Standing status for Continuing Education.
