Anatomy & Physiology
of Muscular Myofascial Meridians
- How muscles connect & talk to each other -
Centered Yoga Institute is proud to present the second in
a series of advanced anatomy and physiology workshops aimed
specifically at dedicated yoga practitioners and teachers,
with a focus on Vinyasa and Ashtanga. This series will deepen
your knowledge and appreciation of this complete and scientific
approach to asana, allowing you to understand how the system
impacts the physical body uniquely preparing it for the deeper
subtle practices of Pranayama.
The more you understand the science of this practice the more
you will appreciate and value your time on the mat. This ultimately
serves to empower and deepen your devotion to your practice
and the tradition from which it stems.
If already teaching, this series will enhance your ability
to communicate physical and energetic benefits confidently
to your students.
Knowledge is power. Accordingly, all practitioners and teachers
at some stage of their development will require an exploration
of these concepts for continual personal and professional evolution.
This workshop will explore in-depth, the relationship
between Ashtanga Vinyasa and its effects on the Myofascial
Muscle Meridians & Connective tissues of the body.
You will explore in detail:
- Basic anatomical terms relating to mechanics of movement.
- Review of the deep inner and outer core musculature.
- Review of the muscular anatomy.
- In depth overview of the Energy Meridians of Traditional
Chinese Medicine and its relationship to Yoga.
- In depth overview of the various kinds of connective tissue,

- A detailed exploration of how muscles communicate and distribute
various tensions throughout the body.
- A detailed exploration of how the above contribute to good
structural alignment in the various asanas.
- The applied kinesiology and mechanics of Vinyasa, and specific
techniques for developing jump back and jump through.
In addition to this, you will:
- Be immersed in yogic living and in the company of like-minded
individuals.

the senior tutelage of Neil Barker and Paul Dallaghan.
