Anatomy for Yoga Online Course with Paul Grilley - Unlimited On-Demand Access: Anytime, Anywhere

The Best-Selling Definitive Anatomical Guide for Yoga!


Paul Grilley’s Anatomy for Yoga program may change the way you practice or teach yoga. The essential lesson this course teaches is that every person has skeletal anatomy unique to themselves. This means that we will not all look the same in our yoga poses. Instead of correcting the body so that it conforms to poses demonstrated in book illustrations, teachers should allow the body to form in a way that makes sense for the individual student.

Paul Grilley’s Anatomy for Yoga program explains his perspective in detail. He presents a variety of yoga practitioners to show how their bodies naturally go into poses differently due to the structure of their anatomy. Instead of assuming a student in class is not able to rotate their arm completely due to inappropriate technique, he shows that that their shoulder may be structured in a way that inhibits rotation.
