3. Anatomy, Healing & Yoga Therapy

  • Musculoskeletal anatomy in detail: bones, joints, muscles, fascia, and nervous system.

  • How to prevent and address injuries (back, knees, shoulders, wrists, etc.).

  • Healing sequences specifically designed for common conditions like lower back pain.

  • The link between anatomy, posture, and energy flow.

4. Yoga Philosophy & the Yogic Lifestyle

  • Study of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, the Bhagavad Gita, the Ramayana, and Mahabharata.

  • The Eight Limbs of Yoga and how they apply to modern life.

  • Introduction to Vedanta, Tantra, and the Four Paths of Yoga: Raja, Bhakti, Karma, and Jnana.

  • Sanskrit vocabulary, mantras, and chanting for authentic teaching.

  • Living the yogic lifestyle: plant-based nutrition, ethics, and daily practice.

5. Energy Systems & Inner Practice

  • Understanding prana and the breath as energy.

  • The chakras, nadis, koshas, and bandhas — theory and practice.

  • Mudras and mantras as tools for concentration and healing.
