I'm a yoga teacher who specializes in men's work. I use yoga, Human Design & sexual kung-fu to help queer men break free from their conditioning, form community with each other, and step into their power authentically.
What You Need To Get Started
My top recommendations and resources for a successful AYAMA Training experience: REQUIRED: STOP STRETCHING! A New Yogic Approach To Master Your Body and Live Pain-Free, I will be making book references throughout the training and you will be required to submit a book report to complete your certification. STOP STRETCHING, the podcast (Available on all streaming platforms including Spotify and Apple) Please listen to episodes 1-4 before continuing. SUGGESTED: Join our Facebook Group here. RECOMMENDED: Autobiography of a Naked Yogi by Yogi Aaron Yoga Mat (Best yoga mat ever!) Four Yoga Blocks (Dimensions 4" x 6" x 9") Yoga Blankets (We recommend having at least 4, more if possible) Yoga Chair (Having a proper yoga chair on hand is a game changer! But any normal chair will do.) Spinal Molding Blocks (To correct posture and spinal curves): For Neck and For Low Back Questions? Use the comments section to ask anything!

Yoga Adjustments: What Happens In The Body
Yoga Adjustments — What Happens In The Body In this video, I show you how a popular yoga adjustment creates weakness in the body. Try this with a friend to feel the effects in your own body and then tell me what you think in the comments!
Makes me feel glad that I've hardly been able to set hands on any of my students over the past five years (since I've been mostly virtual)! I would have been causing so much harm!!!
@Rosco Difini I just uploaded this to the Yogi Club. Definitely watch it and go through it, because it is a perfect model for teachers like yourself to share with others. https://members.theyogi.clu...
@Yogi Aaron wow, thank you! I will!!
I got the book (of course) and I've listened to the podcast...but as for the equipment...don't think I can find any of those things anywhere near San Vito, so I guess I'll be improvising. pura vida!
@Rosco Difini You will be fine. You just reminded me that I need to update the last. You can use blankets instead of the spinal molding blocks, but they are a dream.
@Yogi Aaron kewl, I'm used tooootally used to just...makin it work lol
