About This Event

We know that yoga is more than asana — and while learning techniques to safely sequence asana and pranayama are an important foundation in yoga teaching, philosophy is also a key component to delivering a well-rounded yoga class. Join sisters Cristal and Pooja Sharma to explore how to introduce the concept of detachment while teaching asana, pranayama, and meditation. We'll discuss how to integrate yoga philosophy in a way that is both accessible for students and works with the flow of your class.

You'll learn:

  • The meaning of detachment
  • How to incorporate philosophy when planning your class
  • Teaching methods to integrate the concept of detachment in your class, and how to connect it with asana, pranayama, and meditation
