This second level of anatomy training focuses on the upper body. Our study reaches into opening the hands, arms and shoulders in order to free up the heart and lungs inside the chest. We review the common ways that the shoulders displace forward resulting in pain in the neck region, tension between the shoulder blades and numbness in the arm and hand. We look at the physical and energetic components of the shoulder girdle, including a review of the primary muscles that hold the shoulders in place and the subtle channels in the heart and throat chakras. During the training, we practice asana and pranayama to bring greater strength, elasticity, courage and genuine openness to the upper chest and shoulders. Recommended for the course is "The Atlas of Human Anatomy" by Frank Netter. Includes anatomy training manual. Please bring mat, block, blanket and 8 ft. strap. Counts as 18 hours toward: Yoga Alliance Anatomy Requirement; Prajna Yoga Teacher Training; Moksha Yoga Center Teacher Training; Prairie Yoga Teacher Training. Please ask for more information. Each day of anatomy will include an asana practice from 9:30-11 am and a 1-1/2 hour lunch break from 12:30-2 pm
