As a teacher, the most rewarding thing ever is to watch students have breakthroughs and get out of pain

And it's even more rewarding that it can still happen through Zoom!

In our last Alignment module, we were flooded with students having these kinds of breakthroughs, and I couldn't be happier.

New students discovered ways to line up their bodies through asana, improve their posture, and go deeper in all their poses.

And veteran 90 Monkeys students solidified their understanding and got more clear on how to teach alignment, all while reveling in long practices on the mat.

We even recorded a bonus video of me working one-on-one with two students, one with a lower back challenge and the other with a pain in the back of his knee in trikonasana.

If you weren't able to join us live for Yoga Alignment & Essential Anatomy, you're in luck because we've just made it available in a convenient archived course!

Yoga philosophy can be so abstract and obtuse. And

Yoga philosophy can be so abstract and obtuse. And some of the interpretations and viewpoints can seem highly irrelevant to 21st Century seekers.

But imagine breaking it down with a teacher and some good friends who can help bring it to life in relatable ways.

That’s the kind of learning environment we dig, and we’re here to help create this space for you too in our latest philosophy courses:

• Yoga Philosophy Foundations Applied

• Advanced Yoga Philosophy: The Ramayana, Kundalini, and Deities

Here’s what one recent grad had to say about them,

“Do yourself a favour, let Amy and her team magically weave a vibrant tapestry of information into a colourful and supportive blanket of knowledge which you can draw upon anytime. They will increase the power and potency when you prepare, sequence and theme your next classes with the wisdom provided by these expertly curated modules.”

If you missed the modules live, we’ve now bundled together the archived courses that you can take at your own pace for Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Credit!

Tuition for these bundled courses is on a sliding scale starting at $150 to ensure accessibility at this time.

This post from our 200hr graduate and 500hr student Suset @alittleawareness is exactly what we all need to hear right now!

WANT TO FEEL LESS [FILL IN THE BLANK WITH WHATEVER YUCK YOU ARE FEELING]?

Do something for someone else. Yep. As simple as that. And by do something, I don’t mean do something huge (though those are awesome too).

It can be something as simple as giving a compliment, like my friend and fellow yogi @caroncaresyoga was doing here, as we were getting certified together at @90monkeys don’t remember when ago. Or sending loving energies to someone.

Research shows that giving, contributing to someone else helps lower blood pressure, increases self-esteem, lowers stress levels, supports happier and longer lives.

“Go do something for someone else” is one of my favorite tasks or funwork (bc who needs more homework) to give to my clients. It has the added benefit of immediately getting you out of your head and giving you perspective about the world around you.

Don’t believe its effect? On your next break today, look out the window and send a good, loving thought to every person walking by.

Instant pick me up.

And the world is a better place. Win-win. What do you say? Are you up for it?

The stress associated with increased hours at computers and isolation is having consequences to our health and well being. And if the state of the world has your nervous system on overload, you are HUMAN!

To get through this time, and be at your best for your family, co-workers, and neighbors, it’s imperative that you do something to settle your nervous system, improve your posture, and connect with your highest self. Restorative yoga is the ticket!

@amyippoliti will be leading this 2-hour Restorative yoga workshop live online in collaboration with Hot Yoga Dublin.

Most of you know that I started practicing yoga as

Most of you know that I started practicing yoga as a teenager.

Around 13 years into practicing, I noticed the strangest thing: my 23 year old body was getting tighter, not more flexible, and I struggled with injuries.

I almost gave up on yoga, but then I started learning about alignment and everything changed.

Not only did I overcome my injuries, my practice got stronger and my body got more limber again.

In fact, I was able to go about four inches deeper in all of my poses!
What shocked me most was that my practice advanced rapidly over time, whereas my other yoga friends seemed to plateau in their growth.
There was something about the alignment.

I knew I'd found the secret to a safe, lifelong yoga practice -- and I dove all in.

Fast forward 22 years, I'm still teaching alignment. 
Why?

Because it transforms people's practice, lives, and enhances their longevity!

Enrollment is now open for our next online module at @90monkeys which will focus on unpacking the alignment method I use in my practice.

Through this module, starting late September, you'll not only experience it in your own body, but you'll discover tools to teach it to others.

Within days of learning this stuff, you'll gain actionable teachings you can share with your students right away that will produce ridiculously helpful results - even via online teaching!

Things like:
🙌🏽 Freedom for the lower back, knees, neck, shoulders, wrists and more
🚶🏽‍♀️Better posture (especially sitting so much right now!)
🧘🏽‍♀️ Increased range of motion & flexibility in hip opening, back bending, and forward folds
🤸🏽‍♀️ Improved strength and stamina in all poses, including inversions & arm balances 
You'll also learn all this through the lens of essential anatomy, which helps give you the "why" behind the alignment & form!
 Can’t wait to dive into this topic with you all, and to connect in a meaningful way online!
