Program

Intention

Train your eyes to see where support is needed and effectively guide students’ individual processes with the skillful application of therapeutic sequencing. Re-inspire teachers and students alike that we don’t have to ‘learn’ how to move; rather, functional movement is innate, and yoga happens when we remember our intrinsic wisdom.

Philosophy

IMG_1372-2-philosophyEffective therapy awakens us to our deepest and most functional strength. Through Annie‘s philosophy of Holistic Yoga Therapeutics, you will learn to speak to the interface of applied anatomy and energetics. As a teacher and therapist, you will learn to empower your students through an understanding that we are born to move, we are capable of moving, and that through awareness, healing is possible.

Teachers

Annie Adamson, E-RYT

Director

Annie Adamson is co-owner of Yoga Union Community Wellness Center. She holds certifications in Anusara, Power Vinyasa, Hatha Yoga, and Holistic Pelvic Care. Annie believes yoga connects us with our bodies, and that this mindful practice can be applied to any and all movement. Holistic Yoga Therapeutics offers the integration of body-consciousness, which brings functional movement patterns into practice and daily life.
Instead of relying on alignment as a one-size-fits- all method, Annie uses alignment to illuminate new pathways towards deeper sensation and awareness. Annie empowers her students and clients to use their own intelligence and strength to tap into their unique potential for healing. Applying over a decade of experience in yoga and therapeutics, Annie provides guidance and support to the student in a step-by-step rehabilitative practice. This custom-tailored process affords students with powerful alignment tools to create profound healing in their own bodies.
