Tell us in the comments what you are most excited to learn in Level 3.
I am so deeply grateful to be able to take this Course and learn from "The Master". I have come a long way since last I saw you in '23 (at least I think it was then when you worked on me) and when I was truly ignorant about the major impact AYAMA would have in my life. I only hope that I live long enough "to finally become muscle pain free"! I am really looking forward to exploring the Third Level with you!
@ARIAAL ASHLIE welcome to level 3. Now we really begin to dive in.

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!
I’ve never done this to anyone, but have been the recipient. Unless I know the teacher and their understanding of the body, I almost never let anyone touch me. Especially if I am trying to slip away for a few minutes.
What are your thoughts on passive stretching in twists? For example, Parivrtta Sukhasana, it’s often taught to use the hand on the opposite knee to pull yourself further into the twist. However, after assisting at a YTT, I’ve come to believe that a simple action like that can lead to injury.
@Chris Keithley Thanks for sharing this. And asking.
Adjustments in twists are, in some ways, even worse. Whenever we passively push ourselves or our students and exceed a range of motion at any joint. we are going to compromise those muscles. In twisting, almost every single muscle in the trunk and spine has something to do with rotating. So, when a teacher adjusts a student who is twisting, that is going to negatively affect more than 30 muscles. Not sure if you have seen this yet in the Yogi Club, I just uploaded it. https://members.theyogi.clu...
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...
