Introduction

Learn how you can Aim True in order to build smart and creative sequencing that makes challenge poses accessible. This advanced training will help you and your students release fear and take aim at intimidating poses through in-depth study, steady practice and a whole lot of fun. Delivered with Kathryn Budig's signature lighthearted approach, the course strikes the perfect balance between rigorous challenge and playful empowerment.

The Aim True Advanced Teacher Training provides a rich understanding of five advanced poses—exploring everything from their technical makeup and traditional uses, to their energetic effects and creative possibilities. Modifications, variations, props and accessible preparatory postures will help you gradually build toward their full expression, and a final apex flow will have you magically doing poses you never thought possible. In-depth assignments explore the postures thematically, providing a deeper understanding of how to safely weave them into your teaching. Stories from Kathryn's personal experience with the poses are included throughout, so be warned, this course may induce laughter, happiness and the loss of self-limiting beliefs.

Part 2 is all about helping you and your students find structure amidst playfulness, while learning to be bold and move past fear. You'll tackle hollow back forearm stand, gandha bherundasana, baby hopper, standing splits, and eka pada rajakapotasana (one-legged king pigeon), and cultivate bravery through challenge.
