Intermediate Yoga

In this course students will deepen their study and practice of yoga. Students will master the basic knowledge learned in Beginning Yoga, while studying advanced poses and breathing techniques. The course will look more deeply into Indian philosophy, responding in writing to portions of India's classic text, the Bhagavad-Gita. Special attention will be paid to anatomy and kinesiology as it applies to the dancer. By the end of the course, students will demonstrate an advanced kinesthetic awareness of the body, the ability to perform advanced poses, and a deeper understanding of the philosophy and science of yoga. This course may be taken up to four times, but will only count one time towards graduation.
