Vinyasa Sequencing for Yoga Teachers

with Jeanne

Featherston Studio | $85

Join Jeanne Balding-Weinstock, founder of Kula Yoga

Vinyasa means Conscious Movement.

As a teacher it is our job to guide the practice intentionally, leading the student into a deeper awareness of the physical body.

Support yourself as a teacher with sequences that build poses effectively, reduce the risk of injury, and overall enhance the student's experience of the class.

In this hands-on workshop, we will learn and practice

- Intelligent sequencing - what it is and how to do it

- Common yoga injuries and how to reduce risk

- Teaching to mixed levels effectively and safely

Through work in groups, we’ll create our own template to use as a foundation for future classes so you can teach with confidence.

About Jeanne: I am passionate about practicing and teaching vinyasa yoga. I love the weaving together of breath, mindfulness and movement and the balance of strength and flexibility it creates.

I have been teaching Yoga for 8 years in California and New Zealand at Hot Yoga Wellington, Lower Hutt and Pause Yoga. I also founded Kula Yoga and have been teaching to children, teens, and adults, bringing the ancient wisdom of yoga to modern yogis of all ages and abilities. Vinyasa is my passion and practice of choice.

I received my 200-hour RYT training with Kaya Yoga in Davis, California with a focus on vinyasa yoga, philosophy and pranayama. An eager student, I have also studied with leaders in the field including Noah Maze, Tiffany Cruikshank, Maty Ezraty, and Amy Ippoletti, Joe Barnett. I glean wisdom from teachers online like Doug Keller, Judith Laster and Leslie Howard. It’s an honour to share this love of yoga with you in this workshop.

Kids Yoga Term 2

With Kids Yoga NZ

Lower Hutt | Cost $95 per student or $150 for siblings (2 students)

There are so many choices available to parents these days for extra-curricular physical activity for children, so why choose kids yoga over other physical/movement-based classes? Kid’s yoga goes beyond getting kids physically active and healthy. Kids Yoga NZ Instructors strive to maintain a balance between spontaneity and structure - so that children of all ages participating in the class learn to listen to themselves (and each other) and express themselves creatively. The mix of stories, song, games, music, mindfulness and yoga poses creates a multi-sensory, tactile environment, where children develop through kinesthetic, visual, and aural learning.
