Observing and Discussion of Program |
| The
Friday night class is intended to give feedback
on your practice of the poses on your syllabus.
The Saturday morning session is an opportunity to
participate in and/or observe a class: the teacher’s
sequence, the linking of the poses, the teacher’s
instructions and the teacher’s observation,
corrections and/or modifications – will all
be discussed and critiqued during the teacher training.
You may, but are not required to, participate in
or observe one or both classes – included
in the cost of the program. From 12:30p.m. –
1:15p.m., we will chant one or two of the four books
or “padas” of Patanjali’s Yoga
Sutras along with Geeta or one of her students.
You
will have time to eat between the morning class
and the 12:30 p.m. chanting of the Sutras. There
will also be a 15 minute break between chanting
and the 1:30 – 6:00 session. This will allow
adequate time to nourish and rejuvenate before
the 1:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. session. Please be
prepared by referring to the material that follows.
