Tias Little in Brooklyn, Oct 4th- 7th
Mala Yoga is happy to announce that Tias Little will lead the first level of his teacher training at the Brooklyn Ballet, located in downtown Brooklyn. We are pleased to co-host this special event with Prajna Yoga, Tias & Surya Little’s yoga school in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Tias is a “teacher’s teacher” and many of the Mala teaching team have studied with him and continue to do so. This is a unique opportunity to stay local and study with a internationally-recognized yoga teacher.
To register for the training, please contact Prajna Yoga directly.
Tias & Surya Little
In level I students will explore the foundational teachings of the yoga practice. In the body we investigate the feet and legs and, given our bipedal stance, how they are key to supporting upright posture. We teach techniques to open the feet, knee and hip prior to the practice of standing poses. We review the key anatomical structures that relate to the arches of the feet and detail how the feet are “the foundation to the temple of the body”. We study the importance of positioning the femur under the pelvis and spine in order to achieve optimum balance in the leg. To this end we study the musculature of the leg and the primary arteries and nerve channels that flow into the legs through the pelvis. We study the inner, outer and core myo-fascial meridians in the legs. We emphasize the importance of the sacrum relative to the lower two chakras, mula and uddiyana bandhas. We undertake an in-depth study of the ilio-psoas and its preeminent position in the body.
