Teacher Training Day 4

We gathered from 1 to 5 today.

A handful of injuries were starting to reveal themselves yesterday.

It felt appropriate to slow down, give space for those injuries, and practice touching.

Opening

Constructive Rest Pose

Sharing

Everyone found this surprisingly deep and wide.  We all hold so much tension in the pelvic region and everyone found new and deep release.

Pose Breakdown Review

Case Study Discussion

I wanted to bring up the sensitive subject that injuries are never "just physical."  I also wanted to share the possibility that you can remain a learner.  Staying open and using Google and making it a process.  And being open to not knowing.  This led to a discussion around eating disorders, crying in class, and our role as teachers.
