35 Hour ADVANCED Intensive
Progressive Asana Practice to Advanced Poses, Creative Vinyasa Sequencing, and Refining the Art of Teaching
Vinyasa Flow Yoga has a wonderful potential to be complete practice: therapeutic and energizing for the body/mind and a path toward spiritual realization. Also, the open format of Vinyasa is a blank canvas for the artist within to guide practices that inspire. In this 5 day advanced intensive, Simon will guide the exploration of important and subtle aspects of teaching inspiring Vinyasa Yoga as a physical discipline and spiritual practice.
Develop an understanding of the dynamic actions required to make each pose alive. Through intensive and progressive asana practice, visual assessment, and verbal cues, we will explore the principles that build the bridge from a foundational to advanced practice. We begin each day with a complete vinyasa flow practice infused with physical and energetic alignment cues leading into peak inversions, arm balance and backbends. In the second session, we will breakdown key poses and different parts of the practice in a workshop style to refine our embodiment and teaching.
Integrate Vinyasa Krama sequencing: practice linking poses intelligently, grouping small groups of postures toward peak poses, and opening different parts of the body for deeper postures. Discussion of sequencing will include building toward peak poses and focusing within asana families such as standing poses, arm balances, inversions and backbends.
Gain a better understanding of the physical and energetic principles from the Ashtanga, Iyengar, and Vinyasa systems. We will examine how the universal principles and the unique wisdom of each style, can greatly enhance our overall understanding of balance and energy flow. Thus, we enter into a more knowledgeable place to teach and assist students in a wholistic way. Ultimately, we must make the teachings alive, as we adapt our teaching towards the unique needs of each student. Learn to develop yoga classes and privates for all levels, integrating a deeper understanding of alignment to help your students safely grow in their practice. The immersion is designed for teachers from all traditions of yoga and experienced practitioners.
Finally, we will explore linking the physical practice with the spiritual path through the introduction of yogic themes and dharma talks. The conscious decision to create the space for others to explore their self-realization is perhaps the most difficult bridge to pass in your teaching career. Yet, it may be the most most important; allowing students to pass from a purely physical space toward self exploration and growth.
Become dedicated to moving away from scripted teaching toward creative artistry... the process of becoming absolutely present with your students. Simon and Klara both have many years of of study, practice, and assisting with Maty Ezraty, Shiva Rea, Richard Freeman, and Dharma Mittra.

SIMON PARK
Simon began his Yoga journey in 1995 with Shiva Rea in the World Arts and Cultures Department at UCLA. Soon thereafter, he became immersed in the great atmosphere of the original YogaWorks studios in Santa Monica where he completed his first teacher training with Maty Ezraty in 1998. A move home to Philadelphia led to an opportunity to study with senior Iyengar Teacher, Joan White, and the legendary yogi Dharma Mittra. After apprenticing with Shiva Rea as an assistant, Simon began leading his own workshops, teacher trainings, and retreats - eventually worldwide. In 2007, Yoga Journal acclaimed Simon as, "one of the most influential and gifted Yoga teachers of the next generation.” His free-style Vinyasa is fluid, intuitive, and encourages freedom through self expression. Simon is profoundly influenced by the teachings of Shiva Rea, Richard Freeman, Maty Ezraty, Joan White, and Dharma Mitra - his core teachers for the past 20+ years. Simon's blend of these influences finds a beautiful alchemy in his style, Liquid Flow Yoga, a mix of classical and modern Yoga. Recently, Simon returned to his educational roots by creating a Yoga Program for Princeton University. Dubbed the "Flying Nomad," he draws inspiration from road legends such as Jimi Hendrix who aptly stated, "the Earth is my home.”
