A 50hr immersion into 4Beat: the dynamic vinyasa flow born out of the Rocket Yoga system in which the core of the practice is the synchronisation of the breath to the slow, regular beat of the music.
Join 4BEAT founder Marcus Veda for this six-day training. 4BEAT is a dynamic vinyasa yoga where the breath is synced to the slow, regular beat of the music: a moving meditation. It is a sequence, a flow of asana (postures) but also a community. Founded by Marcus Veda at Mission in London.
On this course we look further into the philosophy and methodology of teaching and practising to the beat. We dive deep into the Science of Breath and how traditional pranayama relates to modern breathing practices. Understand the union of breath, music and yoga at the heart of 4BEAT and its effect on our brain, nervous system and state of mind.
September looks at – Backline, Breath & Extension. We go deep into the brain chemistry of pranayama with Dr K.O. & Ruki, functional spinal anatomy with Em Mergs, plus “inside-out” philosophy of alignment, directional assisting, creative vs structured sequencing to the beat, the power of the spine, subtle energy and expressive teaching techniques.
This TT is for people who have already completed a 200hr training in any style of yoga or experienced practitioners who want to go deeper into the connection of the beat and the breath.
On this 50hr TT/immersion you will learn:
