10 hour Advanced Functional Shoulder Module
- Date: June 14, 2020.
- Hours: 8am - 6pm
- Location: Virtual Training on Zoom Platform
- Teachers: Casey Backus
The shoulder is perhaps the body’s most mobile joint; however, healthy shoulder mobility requires a complex system of stabilization. Unlike many other forms of exercise, vinyasa flow includes significant use of the upper extremities, often in repetitive weight bearing positions. Through cueing and intelligent sequencing, yoga teachers can guide students to engage the shoulder girdle safely and effectively.
Join Physical Therapist Casey Backus for a ONE day Advanced Functional Shoulder Intensive. In this 10-hour VIRTUAL module, we’ll examine pertinent anatomy of the shoulder as related to function and dysfunction. We will identify and differentiate required muscular engagement in weight bearing movements like chaturanga and non weight bearing movements like eagle arms.
Training will include a vinyasa practice, isolated drill work, guided self myofascial release, sample sequencing & cueing suggestions to maximize healthy shoulder function. This module is intended to de-mystify the complexity of the shoulder girdle and empower teachers to practice, cue, & sequence more confidently.
