Inquiry vs. Technique in the Classroom: The Sthira and Sukha of Teaching Yoga

Find the balance between clear instruction and space for student discovery.

Benefits

Join Leslie Kaminoff for a workshop on balancing these two essential parts of teaching. Through sample sequences and interactive discussion, you’ll explore ways to give clear, useful instruction while inviting students to inquire, adapt, and learn for themselves. You’ll leave with practical ideas to bring into your next class.
