Aki Omori Embodied anatomy and movement exploration. Course Mentor www.akiomori.blogspot.com Course structure and content Aki has studied many styles of yoga over the last 20 years. She is a Somatic Movement Therapist and trained in Structural Yoga Therapy. She teaches from movement principles rather than with the objective of simply achieving forms. She is also a well recognised restorative yoga teacher and an experienced pranayama practitioner. She is inspired by tantra and devoted to advaita (non-dual) teaching. Aki teaches at London’s Triyoga, at Soho, Chelsea and Primrose Hill. Aki is also a keen contact improviser! The course will take place intensively from October 2012 - July 2013, with some weekends starting on Friday evening. A typical day is from 10 to 6pm – with a lunch break! During this time you will be expected to undertake a case study (to be agreed) typically in a training institution, or with a company or individual performer. This case study will form an integral part of the final assessment and our exciting research forum. Module 1. ASANA PRACTICE AND TECHNIQUES This module will give students the opportunity to deepen their own inquiry into their practice and to develop the skills to teach yoga in the vinyasa flow style, modifying elements of the practice to suit different levels of ability and/or dance background. The underlying principle of this module is to strengthen and develop personal practice as well as develop skills in sequencing, demonstration, sensitivity to breath and application of safe movement/dance practice. Yin yoga, restorative yoga and somatic movement practices are also explored within this module, as are pranayama and meditation techniques. 8
