Your instructor: David Keil
Working with pain and injuries can be intimidating. Maybe you feel like you don't even know where to start! That's why I created this workshop.
You don't need to know everything about anatomy or memorize every modification for every pose to get started. In this yoga injuries workshop, you'll learn how to ask the right questions to help steer the process of investigation. You'll learn how to ask questions that will inform your suggestions of how and when to modify postures for pain or injury. Our workshop will help you develop the skills to design the right modification for a pose for each individual student.
You won't find a one-size-fits-all approach in this workshop! Learn a method for working with each unique student and situation.
David Keil has taught anatomy in yoga teacher trainings since 1998.
More to the point: he practices. The anatomy in his courses lives on the mat, not in a lab.
