Align and assist / 20 hour Katonah Yoga™ TT w/ Elisa

Lämpimästi tervetuloa Suomen ensimmäiseen Katonah Yoga -koulutukseen!

Tässä intensiivisessä 20 tunnin koulutuksessa käymme läpi Katonah Yogan teorian ja ideologian pohjalta mm:

- Ainutlaatuisia tapoja linjata asana ja tehdä harjoituksesta vakaampi käyttäen apuna kehon omia mittasuhteita ja geometriaa.

- Avustuksia, jotka antavat täysin uuden ymmärryksen asanan ulottuvuuksista. (It's like navigating someone into a new place that they've never been in before.)

- Erilaisia tapoja käyttää apuvälineitä harjoituksen tukena

(Erikokoiset blokit, quick release -vyöt, paksut viltit, tuolit, kepit, bolsterit, pallot jne.)

Koulutus pidetään suurimmaksi osaksi suomeksi, mutta jottei materiaali liikaa muutu, käymme terminologiaa läpi myös englanniksi.

Early bird hinta 425€ (voimassa 17.2.2019 asti)

Normaali hinta 495€.

Opettajana toimii Suomen ensimmäinen sertifioitu Katonah Yoga opettaja ja Pranama Kallion omistaja Elisa Kuuttila (@elisakuuttilayoga).

"To be well adjusted, one must consciously integrate all three floors of the body. Each floor expresses different parts of the whole, while housing unique information, functions, and efficiencies. The first floor, our lower body, substantiates us, housing our first nature, our ancestry, our stability, our grounding. The second floor, our upper body, potentiates us, housing our second nature, our capacity, our competence, our participation. The third floor, our head, liberates us, housing our vision, our imagination, our antenna, giving us the ability to see all the way around ourselves.

In Katonah Yoga, asana is seen as metaphor. For example how you move through a forward bend reflects how you move forward in daily life. The goal of this practice is a healthy body and greater consciousness, using poses to explore and free up your body, mind, and life. Develop your depths for stability and increase your capasity to participate in the world.

Katonah Yoga teaches you to work smarter, not harder. In fact, muscles aren’t mentioned. For example, when a teacher in another style might ask you to engage your core in Plank, a Katonah teacher would instead ask you to move your bones and organs in two directions at once (heels backward and lungs forward). In this style, stability is created through the alignment and angles of the bones and joints. Think of a building, its strength comes from its structure (or bones) not from the cement (which Katonah compares to muscle). And according to Chinese Medicine energy moves through organs, bones, and joints, as opposed to muscles, which are too dense. So a well-aligned Katonah pose allows energy currents to move through you, making asana feel effortless. Katonah also teaches that when you use your bones as a boundary, you can only go so far, making you less likely to injure yourself, overstretch, or overtwist."
