The Course Framework

The curriculum is organized around functional anatomy that yoga teachers can actually apply in their teaching:

  • Foundational Concepts How bodies move, basic anatomical terminology, and the principles of functional movement. Building a shared language without overwhelming students.

  • Skeletal System Bone structure, joint types, and ranges of motion. Understanding why bodies move differently and what that means for asana practice.

  • Muscular System How muscles work, major muscle groups in yoga asana, and the relationship between strength and flexibility. Practical muscle knowledge teachers can use.

  • Connective Tissue Fascia, ligaments, tendons, and their role in movement and stability. Understanding what limits movement and why.

  • Movement Patterns How the body moves as an integrated system. Analyzing common yoga poses through an anatomical lens.

  • Individual Variation Skeletal differences, proportions, and why the same pose looks different in different bodies. Teaching anatomy that honours diversity.

  • Application to Teaching Using anatomical knowledge to cue more effectively, assist safely, and help students understand their own bodies.

    Each element builds on the others. Students develop skills progressively rather than collecting disconnected information.

How We Approach Anatomy Education

Safe Teaching Practices

Understanding anatomy helps teachers cue more precisely, assist more safely, and recognize when students need modifications.

Visual Learning

Anatomy makes more sense when you can see it. We include clear diagrams, visual demonstrations, and movement exploration.

 

Immediate Application

Every anatomical concept connects directly to yoga asana. Students learn anatomy in context, not as abstract information.

Honouring Variation

Bodies are different. The curriculum emphasizes skeletal and structural variation so teachers can understand why students experience poses differently.

 

Functional Over Memorization

Students don't need to memorize every muscle origin and insertion. They need to understand how bodies move and how that knowledge helps them teach better.

About Us

We've been practicing yoga for over 50 years combined and working in formal education for more than 30 years. That intersection (understanding both yoga deeply and how people actually learn) is what this curriculum comes from.

We've trained teachers, developed programs, and seen what works and what doesn't. We've also experienced the frustration of creating curriculum from scratch and watching talented yoga teachers struggle with the same challenges.

This curriculum is what we wish had existed when we started training teachers. It's built from real experience, both the successes and the mistakes we've made along the way.

 

How the License Works

This is an annual licensing model. You purchase the license for one year, which gives you access to all materials and any support. After the first year, you can renew to continue using the curriculum and receive ongoing updates.

The license is self-reporting. We trust you to use the materials according to the agreement.
