I’m a self-confessed perfectionist, so naturally, when I first started yoga, I wanted to be “perfect” at asana too.
Being told I had a "beautiful practice" felt like the ultimate compliment, so I followed every alignment rule like a star student: hips square in Warrior 1, shin parallel for Pigeon, elbows hugging my ribs in Chaturanga.
✅ My tailbone was tucked.
✅ My core was engaged.
✅ My knees were at 90 degrees in every lunge.
I couldn’t understand why I was doing everything right, but it all felt so…wrong. 🤷♀️
When I first started teaching, I repeated these same rules to my students. 😬
But it didn't take long to notice something wasn't right.
What worked for one student didn't make sense for another - and a lot of yoga alignment cues didn't hold up anatomically. 🤔
That realisation sparked a fascination (and still present passion) to dive deeper.
I wanted to understand the WHY behind the WHAT.
🤓🦴🧠 So I began learning all about anatomy, biomechanics, and neuroscience...
..and what I discovered fundamentally changed my relationship with asana, and movement in general.
It was the shift that took me from a yoga instructor ➡️ to a yoga teacher.
This workshop will help you achieve similar shifts - whether you're a student who follows the rules, or a teacher who still relies on them.
Ready to join a quiet rebellion against outdated cues that are doing you more harm than good? ✨
Join me in Geneva at the end of the month for my 12-hour mini-training on anatomy, alignment and asanas.
👇 The early bird ends tomorrow and spaces are limited.
