No Loss for Words: Language Development for Yoga Teachers

As yoga teachers and movement professionals, the words that we speak carry weight. We use language for many purposes; to orient bodies in space, suggest a variation of a pose, generate strong brain-body connections, and to create a sense of acceptance and community. The words we speak can be an invitation to bring students deeper into their practice or can leave students feeling alienated. Words matter.

This course will cover:

• types of cueing – internal, external, verbal, and proprioceptive
• deconstructing fear-based and hierarchical instruction
• cultivating inclusive and invitational language
• using creative imagery in your teaching
• diversifying your technical language
• speaking to bodies in motion

This course is a part of the JOY of Yoga 300-Hour Teacher Training Core Curriculum, and also open to the public, with eligibility for 15 CEUs (Continuing Education Units).
