  • Melanie Cooper Derby UK (map)

I am passionate about yoga anatomy. It can give us so much in terms of connection to our practice and informing our teaching. It adds a layer of understanding and knowledge that can transform your relationship to your body and make your teaching more sensitive and more intelligent

This course is available as fully on demand pre recorded via The Shala

Or as a two day in person course at The Breathing Space in Derby

We will look at the anatomy of the hips, twists, backbends, forward bends and shoulders. There will be a very practical emphasis on exploring your body to help you feel the anatomy so it can inform your teaching.
