Month Focus: Let’s Get Functional
LPY views yoga through the lens of longevity. We have spent years studying with amazing teachers and have taken that knowledge to the next level by incorporating it into how we teach all levels vinyasa classes. Our methodology gives teachers the knowledge they need to create their own classes with confidence.
Each month gives the mentees 2 chances to teach a community class and a chance to work hands on assists.
Weekend Workshops 9/9-9/11
Anatomy Refresh/Deeper Dive - If you want to keep bodies safe you have to understand them. Let’s use anatomy to better understand how and why we move. We want you to have basic, smart vocabulary to put into action what you are teaching and a deeper understanding of how muscle, bone and connective tissue work.
Functional Movement - We get together to learn about functional movement from the perspective of other fitness modalities. From personal training, to barre to TRX - the principles of functional movement can be found in almost all fitness modalities - but why not yoga? These principles will inform how you teach and make your classes safer, stronger & wiser.
Hands On Assists - You can never practice too much. There is an art and a lot to think about when it comes to putting hands on people. This module will flush out the pros and cons and give you real life experience on how and when to assist your clients.
