Yoga is a practice taught with great intention.  Behind-the-scenes you’ll find:

  • Clear enduring understandings that guide each practice
  • Well-crafted sequences to draw the learner into the lesson, keep it relevant to the learner, and ensure the core objective is accessible
  • Tools to overcome distractions and inhibitions
  • Strategies to promote differentiated instruction and inclusion
  • Multiple opportunities for self-reflection
  • A code of ethics for instructors

A yoga session designed to model pedagogic techniques can focus on topics such as:

  • Calm the Mind & Overcome Obstacles to Learning
  • “What Does it Mean to Me??”  How to Help Learners Embody and Personalize the Lesson
  • The Art of the Sequence: How to Design a Lesson Plan that is Safe, Clear, and Accessible
  • No Learner Left Behind!  Differentiated Instruction in a Multi-Level Classroom
  • Best Practices in Classroom Management
