This course is comprised of guided lecture recordings and downloadable PDF lecture slides.
The course will consist of our teacher trainees & participants being walked through yoga history and philosophy; placing the idea that shaped the evolution of the practice into social and political context and tracing how modern postural yoga came to be.
We then look at the present-day applications of yoga including its commercialization and use as a complementary treatment for physical and mental health conditions before having our guest lecturer 'Ravi Itta Roussos' lead a discussion on cultural appropriation and how yoga can be used for social and racial justice.
