THE
YOGA MODULE within CHAKRA DANCING TEACHER TRAINING
This course was first
designed and lead by Paula Mayura in 2008
Duration and date : To
run over 4 days in June 2010

Introduction to Yoga and the Chakras
Yoga postures, or asanas, as they are called in Sanscrit
(the ancient Indian language that Yoga was traditionally
written in) stimulate and balance energy flow through the
Chakras system.
The Yogic version of the anatomy of our subtle body (or
energy body), fascinatingly overlays perfectly what
science and medicine have come to understand about the
workings of our physical bodies.
Consequently, an understanding of a couple of basic
postures that can be used to awaken and focus on each
Chakra will be a very useful tool in helping people to get
in touch with their energy centres while Chakra Dancing.
AIM
This module will enable students of the ‘Chakra Dancing
Teacher Training’ course to use basic Yoga practices
within their repertoire when teaching Chakra Dancing. They
will be able to incorporate the specific practices taught,
safely and appropriately for each Chakra.
COURSE CONTENT
The course will run over four days during which time we
will :-
- Familiarise
ourselves with the anatomy of the subtle body
In order to make more sense of what is going on when we
work with energy
- Learn basic
Yoga practices to resonate with each of the seven major
Chakras
This will be broken down in great detail and explored
experientially
- Practice
teaching these learned postures to the group
In order to become familiar with putting across the
necessary information to inspire
the desired response from participants
There will be a period
of assessment to reinforce confidence in teaching these
new found practices
Work sheets will be
supplied
A ‘Certificate of Completion of The Yoga Module’ will
be issued to all those successfully completing the
four days

YOGA
MODULE
What is Yoga?
“The word yoga comes from the ancient Indian language
called Sanscrit, and it means union. It can be thought of
as a yoke, of sorts, binding together the body, mind and
spirit. Ultimately, yoga is the union of the individual’s
consciousness with the infinite consciousness.”
Shakta Kaur Khalsa
Yoga postures effectively affect, balance and stimulate
energy in the subtle body.
This energy travels through energy centres rather like
transformers and is, through them, distributed to every
organ, gland and system in the body.
As we know, our Chakra Dancing music stimulates and
resonates with each of these energy centres while we move
with free flow dance to the rhythm and beat and flavour
attuned to each Chakra.
By incorporating Yoga postures that affect energy directly
in the Chakra we are working on we will enhance and
intensify the specific attunement to that Chakra, leading
the experience to its full potential.
“Yoga is like a huge majestic tree that stands for
expansion of the heart, mind and self. Rooted in nature,
it branches out into innumerable realms of creativity,
blossoming with bliss and the fulfilment of all human
potential.
