Women's Yoga Master Class: A Teacher's Intensive Workshop with Sara Avant

Women’s Yoga Master Class: A Teacher’s Intensive (6 hours; 6 Yoga Alliance CEU’s) It’s no surprise to anyone who’s attended a yoga class that yoga is, by and large, taught by women to women. But here’s the surprise: most women don’t know how to practice yoga as women. Many of us have been taught to practice yoga in a masculine, not a feminine, way. We’re competing with one another; treating our bodies like machines (rather than like intelligent, intuitive, creative organisms); practicing the same way everyday despite our age, mood or energy level; and we’re practicing out of obligation instead of our deepest love and devotion. In practicing this way, we are missing out on living as our fullest selves. We’re not tasting and embodying our truest power, radiance, and purpose. What would the world look like if more women walked around empowered and comfortable in their own skin? We need to become this woman. And then we need to teach other women how to do the same. In this 1-day Teacher’s Intensive you will: Learn both the fundamental and nuanced differences between masculine and feminine approaches to yin and flow yoga. Undo emotional and bodily rigidity that you may have acquired through a more masculine approach to yoga. Discover devotion—the flame that ignites the passion of a powerful personal practice and teaching platform. Laugh, love, and learn from other inspiring women! Practice listening and leading from your intuition to burn away any self-doubt that stands in the way from living from your unique genius. Remove your armor to reveal your true power--your vulnerability. See and be seen by other women shining and sharing their deepest, most heartfelt gifts. Our day together will include: Guided women’s yin and flow yoga and meditation practices. A dynamic, interactive lecture, with accompanying handouts, on the fundamental aspects of Women’s Yoga. Group practice teaching and exploratory sharing. Guided journeys of self-inquiry to break down barriers to your intuition and constant stream of inner guidance. Devotional practices to awaken your trust for the Divine Feminine within you and all things. Healthy doses of laughter, playfulness, community, intimacy, edge-pushing, rest, and reverence. A chance to get all of your questions answered by a Women’s Yoga expert so that you can be on your way to becoming one yourself! You must have at least 6 months of previous yoga experience to attend this class. Participants need not be yoga teachers to attend this class—it can be a potent way to deepen one’s own personal practice and feminine embodiment and wisdom. This is a not a “teacher training.” It can supplement your current practice and teaching.
