Understanding and Applying IPT (Integrated Positional Therapy) to Yoga
SUNDAY / 10:20 - 12:20
Are you overstretching your clients?
Yoga teachers all know that a balanced yoga class is important, but what exactly does “a balanced class” mean?
Why do so many yoga classes lean heavy on forward bends and hip openers? Especially when many of our clients spend a large percentage of their days sitting?
Do you move clients equally in all directions? or do you adjust your design to balance out the imbalanced daily life that many clients live?
Applying IPT (Integrated Positional Therapy) to your yoga class design can help create a truly balanced yoga experience for each individual. With the added bonuses of reducing pain caused by muscle tension and realigning the bodies posture.
Learn some simple IPT techniques based on the osteopathic techniques of Strain/Counterstrain and MET (Muscle Energy Technique).
