ACCESS & VARIETY
TWO VERY PRACTICAL CPD DAYS
NEW WAYS WITH RESISTANCE BANDS & BALLS
A creative use of props adds multiple dimensions to a yoga practice, providing access and insight into familiar and not so familiar forms. They can assist with stability, space-making, and offer helpful proprioceptive feedback for building confidence and mindful strength.
We've put together two very practical CPD days for refreshing your use of props. On Day 1 we will work in new ways with resistance bands and small weights on Day 2 show you how to get the most out of small, soft 'pilates' balls as well as the large gym-ball.
-
Find out how to safely use the soft 'pilates' ball and large gym ball.
-
Explore how resistance bands and small weights add mindful strength to practice.
-
Consider throughout matters of accessibility.
While these are stand-alone study days for teachers, they can form part of your elective content on our 300H teacher training programme.
