Enhancing the Power of Āsana: Integrating Marma

The program offers insights into the use of marma points for yoga therapists and yoga teachers. Marma points are the junction of nadī, or energy conduits in the body that supports rebalancing and integration. In using marma to enhance āsana, you’ll find that it works on all levels: the body, mind, Spirit, doṣa and sub-doṣa reconnect bringing harmony and balance.

Sections of the course will review Marma in different regions of the body. We will apply marma cikitsā tools for clients to use to bring balance and maintain harmony in their wellness journey. We will also explore alignment in āsana, allowing students to enhance their health through a regular āsana practice.

There will be homework assignments based on this book: Marma Points of Ayurveda by Vasant Lad and Anisha Durve
If you have a different Marma book, please confirm that with us when you register.
