Understanding Modern Yoga Pedagogy and Curriculum: Exploring Sense-Making by Senior Western Yoga Teacher- Trainers
UNDERSTANDING MODERN YOGA PEDAGOGY AND CURRICULUM: EXPLORING SENSE-MAKING BY SENIOR WESTERN YOGA TEACHER- TRAINERS A Thesis submitted by Andy Davies, MEd For the award of Doctor of Philosophy 2016 Abstract ABSTRACT This study explored senior Western Yoga teacher-trainers’ sense-making in the context of her or his Modern Yoga teacher-training programs. Through senior Western Yoga teacher-trainers’ sense-making of her or his interpretations and applications of non-Western Yoga philosophies and traditions, meaning-making was generated. Sense-making here denotes the participants’ understandings, while meaning-making refers to the understandings that I generated as the researcher. The term Modern Yoga is used in this study to represent a Western understanding and application of non-Western Yoga philosophies and traditions that are referred to here as Premodern Yoga. The aim of this research was to construct a greater understanding and appreciation of senior Western Yoga teacher-trainers’ considerations when conceptualising, planning and implementing Yoga teacher- training. The research questions focused upon the senior Western Yoga teacher- trainers’ spiritual-ethical reflections and her or his pedagogical and curriculum priorities. This research contributes significantly to the body of scholarship related to the pedagogical and curriculum world of Yoga teacher-training and Yoga teaching. In this trans-philosophical, transnational and transcultural research project, I have sought to disrupt various dichotomous understandings. These binaries were considered under two broader umbrella binaries: East-West and Mind-Body. I drew upon the Sanskrit language to construct neologisms to provide me with a scaffold with which to disrupt the limitations and preferential treatment of either/or thinking of Western and non-Western philosophies and meaning-making, while revealing contextually rich, non-binaristic meaning-making.

Yoga Resources Compiled by Joanne Marshall
Yoga Resources Compiled by Joanne Marshall Originating in India, recent estimates indicate that yoga is now practiced by more than 18 million people in North America. As a form of exercise, yoga increases flexibility and strength but it also has a positive effect on the mind and body overall. Yoga may be practiced by people of any age and fitness level and has the potential to be a lifelong practice. These resources can also be found at: http://ils.unc.edu/~marshall/yoga_resources.html Books There are many books about yoga but the following are three of my favorites. For more book titles, go to Amazon.com. Enter any one of these authors' names and you will retrieve not only their books but additional lists of books by a various yoga instructors. Vanda Scaravelli - Awakening the Spine Harper Collins, 1991 Vanda came to yoga after the age of 50 and continued the practice until she died at the age of 91. This book was the inspiration for beginning my yoga practice. It is simply and intelligently written and provides both an understanding of yoga and instructions for the basic postures or asanas. Donna Farhi - Bringing Yoga to Life: The Everyday Practice of Enlightened Living Harper, 2003 This book is about using yoga in your everyday life as a way of relating to yourself and the world around you. It does not contain any instructions on how to do the postures but it is very useful as a way of putting the practice of yoga in perspective. Erich Schiffman - Yoga: The Spirit and Practice of Moving into Stillness Pocket Books, 1996 Erich's book is both a discussion of what yoga is all about and a detailed guide to the postures or "asanas".

YOGA FASCIA, ANATOMY and MOVEMENT
YOGA FASCIA, ANATOMY and MOVEMENT Foreword Yoga, along with martial arts and dance – all of which stretch back into the mists of pre-history – is certainly among the earliest organized attempts to change a person by means of body movement. Even though mod- ern psychotherapy has largely abandoned a body-centred approach in favour of talk therapy and increasing amounts of pharmaceuticals, the positive effects of exercise on the psyche – Juvenal’s mens sana in corpore sano – have been acknowledged for centuries. Yoga, at least in the developed texts and adepts, goes well be- yond these general beneﬁts that come from engaging the mind in a coordinated pumping of the muscles. It claims (and in my experience, often delivers) to advance our psychophysiology into positive territory, away from self-centred, fear-based chemistry to a more serene, objective and fully present state of bodymind. The modern ﬂowering of yoga owes a great deal to the late B.K.S. Iyengar, a lion of a man who wrestled both the postures and the breathing practices of yoga into an understandable and graduated discipline. Even current forms of yoga that have rejected the particulars of his practice owe him a deep debt – without him there would be no “art of contemporary yoga”. With him, and with the interest that has followed and branched out from his work, yoga has taken many forms, and over the course of my working life has gone from a few hippies contorting themselves in an ashram to the current ubiquity of yoga classes in nearly every gym, village hall, street corner, and even school athletic programmes, corporate retreats, and senior centres.

Anatomy Principles of Movement and Alignment There Is a Way of Doing Yoga Poses That We Call “Asanas,” Without the Slightest Effort
Anatomy Principles of Movement and Alignment There is a way of doing yoga poses that we call “asanas,” without the slightest effort. Movement is the song of the body. Yes, the body has its own song from which the movement of dancing arises spontaneously. In other words, the liberation of the upper part of the body (the head, neck, arms, shoulders, and trunk) produced by the acceptance of gravity in the lower part of the body (legs, feet, knees, and hips) is the origin of lightness, and dancing is its expression. This song, if you care to listen to it, is beauty. We could say that it is part of nature. We sing when we are happy and the body goes with it like waves in the sea. Vanda Scaravelli, Awakening the Spine Principles of alignment depend somewhat on one’s view of the body. If the body is seen as a skeletal structure kept in line by individual muscles, then proper alignment will depend upon positioning the body’s bones correctly in each pose. If the body is seen as a tensegrity structure in which the body’s compression members (bones) push outward while its tension members (fascial system) press inward, alignment becomes a matter of fascial pressure and pull. If the body is viewed primarily as an energetic construct, each pose is formed from the energy flow it produces and alignment is honest adherence to an energetic template. As a yoga teacher, it is instructive to view the body in many ways, discovering principles of alignment. Here are three simplest rules for beginning students, they would be: • Transfer the body weight through the bones.

Yoga Magazine
Dear YOGA Magazine readers, EDITORS LETTER February is a lovely month and although not derived from yoga, Valentine’s Day is a very special event in the calendar for many people. The 14th of February is as- sociated with love, passion, romance and relationships and I hope that this month of love is a wonderful one for you. In the Indian sub-continent the celebration of love is embedded in the very foundation of its culture and disciplines such as Tantra yoga and this is encouraged the whole year through. Martin Gill’s exclusive feature on anti-ageing yoga pos- tures and how to keep yourself looking and feeling youthful is perfect for anyone wanting to look their op- timum best for Valentines day and beyond. Rosie Miles explores how getting away on a retreat is a perfect an- tidote for the stresses and strains of modern life and it’s a reminder that getting ‘away’ to a blissful place may just Namaste be the ideal gift for you and your loved ones. Amisha Ghadiali explores Karma yoga and this Valen- tine’s Day you could make it special by doing some self- less service and giving back to the community. There’s lots more packed in this month’s magazine, in- cluding a special interview with Madonna’s former vo- calist and dancer Danna De Lory about her new devo- tional music album. Forget strawberries and cream this Valentine’s (or keep that) but also stack up on jujube fruit instead. This fruit is packed with antioxidants to keep you looking young, fresh and healthy.
