  • Yoga and Pilates: What’S the Difference? by Sherri R
    Yoga and Pilates: What’s the difference? By Sherri R. Betz, PT, GCS, PMA®-CPT Have you ever wondered… “What are the differences between Yoga and Pilates?” Someone jokingly said, “The difference between Pilates and Yoga is that in Yoga you close your eyes and think about god and in Pilates you keep your eyes open and think about your abs!” One guru said the purpose of Yoga is to become more flexible so that you could sit comfortably to meditate. Yoga certainly is more than that. I write this in trepidation of offending the beautiful Yoga and Pilates practitioners around the world. I hope to distill some of the information about Yoga and Pilates looking at some of the differences and similarities between them to help practitioners understand these popular forms of movement. My yoga practice began in Louisiana (when no one did yoga there!) at about the age of 15. At the local library, I happened to pick up The Sivananda Companion to Yoga and started trying out some of the poses and breathing. Actually, I skipped the breathing and avoided it for many years until I did my Pilates training and was forced to learn to breathe! Now I am devoted to my Ashtanga/Vinyasa Yoga practice and my Pilates work to keep my body in shape and to add a spiritual component to my life. It has been very interesting to compare a movement practice that has been around for 2000 years with one that has been around for only about 80 years. Yoga: Navasana (Boat Pose) Pilates: Teaser Common Forms of Yoga Practice in the United States: Yoga was brought to us by Hindus practicing in India.

Abstract deutsch Titel: Die Auswirkungen von Yoga auf die physische und mentale Gesundheit unter beson- derer Berücksichtigung von Low Back Pain und Depression und dessen Integration in die Physiotherapie (Doppelarbeit) Einleitung: Die Ursprünge von Yoga als traditionelle indische Lehre liegen weit in der Ver- gangenheit. Yoga kann als ganzheitliches Konzept angesehen werden, das auf physischer, psychischer und emotionaler/sozialer Ebene, Einfluss nimmt. In der Komplementär- und Alternativmedizin wird Yoga als Präventionsmaßnahme und zur Linderung von Beschwer- den eingesetzt. Low Back Pain und Depressionen oder Angstzustände sind häufige Krankheitsbilder, die auf physischer und mentaler Ebene wirken. Der Effekt von Yoga als Therapiemaßnahme bei Low Back Pain oder Depression wird in der Literatur beschrieben, jedoch wird selten Yoga der Physiotherapie direkt gegenübergestellt. Methodik: Diese Bachelorarbeit sucht Gemeinsamkeiten, Unterschiede und/oder Schnitt- stellen zwischen Physiotherapie und Yoga als ganzheitliches Behandlungskonzept.

  • Destination Within Sacred Homework
    Destination Within Sacred Homework You will have three assignments and an exam to finish in order to complete your 200 hour Certification. These are assigned with love, knowing they will enhance and enrich your yoga practice to the extent that you devote time and focus to them. I personally have completed projects of a similar nature and found them extremely beneficial and enriching in both my personal yoga practice and my teaching career. You will complete the following (a total of 53 hours of homework) for certification: Practice Teaching, recording, and taking your own classes 7x Reading Projects – 7 books and book reports Embodiment Project Anatomy DVD & Coloring Sheets Practice Homework Final Exam You should work on these in the intervening 6 months between our 2 modules. The exam will take place at home after both modules are completed. Budget your time wisely and get your work done as early as possible. The four months will pass quicker than you think. You may also take time after the 2 nd module to finish the homework. You will not receive your certificate until the homework is complete – it is part of the course curriculum. Practice Teaching You will need an audio recorder for this exercise. If you have a smartphone it’s possible you can use that. You will design seven different sequences. One will be Prana Flow Vinyasa, one will be Forrest yoga and the other five can be any format you choose. You will design the sequences. You will then teach the class and record yourself teaching it. This can be a regular class you are teaching to the public, a private class you teach to volunteers, or you can have a ghost class where you just speak into the audio recorder with no live students present.

  • GLOSSARY of DIFFERENT YOGA STYLES (Updated 20Aug2018)
    GLOSSARY OF DIFFERENT YOGA STYLES (Updated 20Aug2018) ACROYOGA is a type of yoga that combines traditional Hatha or Vinyasa Flow yoga with acrobatics. It originated in the late 1990s and has quickly become popular, with AcroYoga schools now all over the world. Partner work is a key feature of AcroYoga, and the work with a partner helps to improve strength and balance as well as building trust. It may also incorporate elements of massage which can relieve stress. ANUSARA: Founded in 1997 by John Friend, Anusara is heart-oriented, integrates celebration of the heart, alignment. With a more upbeat mood, Anusara focuses on mood enhancement and injury prevention and is especially great for beginners or out-of-shape practitioners. Beginner-friendly. ASHTANGA: An inspiration for many vinyasa-style yoga classes, and a more athletic method, Ashtanga is a traditional practice focused on progressive pose sequences tied to the breath. The Primary Series is made up of about 75 poses, takes about 90 minutes to go through and promotes spinal alignment, detoxification of the body, and building strength and flexibility. And there ain’t no stopping in this class— continuous flow is central to its practice. Founded by K. Pattabhi Jois (1915-2009), this system is taught around the world. Jois's grandson R. Sharath now leads the Shri K. Pattabhi Jois Ashtanga Yoga Institute in Mysore, India. BAPTISTE YOGA: It is physically challenging, flowing set sequence practice in a heated room that will get your heart pumping while also encouraging you to find your authentic personal power in life. Baron Baptiste, son of yoga pioneers Walt and Magana Baptiste (who opened San Francisco's first yoga center in 1955), began practicing as a child and studied with many Indian yoga masters.

  • Meditation Courses 2 About Dru Meditation
    MEDITAtiON COURSES 2 ABOUT DRU MEDITATION What is Dru Meditation? We like to define meditation as the perfect balance between alertness and relaxation. It doesn’t matter if you practise in a chair or sitting cross legged on the floor, it’s all about quietening the mind and stilling the body. Dru Meditation is about finding a still inner point from which you can look at the world in a different way and discover a fresh, new perspective on your life. Discover your inner stillness We take you deeply into the science of meditation, showing how to bring your awareness from the physical body, through to the deepest layers of your being. You will learn to access a deep inner peace, no matter what challenges you may be facing in life. Dru Meditation uniquely makes a focus of the five koshas, which are the different levels through which we experience the world. You’ll discover powerful breathing techniques (pranayama), kriyas and concentration techniques. ABOUT DRU MEDITATION 5 Stages of Dru Meditation Stage 1 Dru Meditation starts with a gentle awareness of the body and breath. This mindful awareness reduces stress, lowers blood pressure, chronic pain and insomnia. You can experience these health benefits at our workshops or retreats. Stage 2 The next stage of Dru Meditation takes us from just observing our mind to understanding the vast landscape of our consciousness, described in the yogic tradition through models such as chakras and koshas. If you attend the Foundation course, you will learn this more refined level of practice, to help you understand how the body, energy, emotions and thought are linked.
