Passion + Knowledge
Words from Mysan
Functional movement, anatomy and yoga is my passion and I do believe I am here to share this with as many curious beings as possible, with the aim of creating more health, wellbeing, and laughter in the world! My goal is to educate yoga teachers to know even more then I know! The purpose is so they can share it widely throughout their communities!
My life-long love for anatomy has brought me into anatomy labs and yoga rooms, universities, and academies internationally.
I am a student first and my studies are continuous, after all, the wisdom of our body and Being is infinite, so how could I ever stop learning about it?!
About 15 years ago I started to put two and two together and it added up to five!
Our yoga asana (poses) practice was lacking in understanding physical range of motion, anatomy, bones, and individual movement. It was stagnated in set movements, striving to get every student in the class to look the same, bend the same and breathe in unison.
And our yoga practice was almost only focused on asana! Where was the ‘living our yoga’?
The problem is, if we do asana after a cookie cutting formula, the ‘living our yoga’ part won’t be easy to connect with. We hear teachers say, the body will lead to the spirit, practice and all shall come. But how can it, when the alignment rules of yoga asana limits the student’s progress by cornering them to do asana in such structured and limited way?
“Nobody puts baby in a corner!” Quoting Johnny Castle in Dirty Dancing
None of us should be cornered to perform our yoga poses to look a certain way!
Instead, we should all be celebrating our unique bones and variations! We should be inspired by teachers who know how to guide each individual student to their best way of doing each asana. The right look and feel for them individually.
If I has a dollar for every time I heard someone say, ‘I went to yoga once, but the teacher wanted me to do stuff I could never get my body to do!!’
Or ‘I cannot do yoga, I’m not flexible enough’.
And ‘after that I will never try yoga again!’
The problem is that rule based and aligned based asana limits the student’s progress in their practice and therefore limits them ‘living our yoga’ progress too! No doors to deeper exploration of our Being can open if we get stuck in the physical!
There is an easy solution for all this. Functional yoga and movement.
And since I have a lot of knowledge (and passion) on the topic, naturally my purpose became to share it! Why? Because spreading this knowledge and understanding will create greater worldwide community happiness!!!
My mission is simple, to educate yoga teachers to be outstanding! To share my knowledge so my graduates can teach intelligent, well-educated, and inspiring classes that functionally and uniquely assists every individual in the room.
The creation of resources for YOU
My teacher once told me that I had to share what I know and understand. He told me it was my duty and he handed me the support, the trust and thumbs up to create teacher trainings.
All my trainings started from that point. I have an urge to share this because it’s too good to be hidden, and really, it’s not mine to hide.
Yin, Yin Yang and Hatha trainings came along. All functional, no alignment rules insight and all providing a deep understanding from the old yoga books to modern science.
Out of that grew many workshops and of course, ‘Love My Bones’ functional anatomy course. The creating of trainings and course are ongoing. The more I learn, the more I have to share.
It is important to always check out who the heck is teaching you!
Anyone can call themselves an expert, a teacher trainer, a teacher or a course facilitator, so please do your background check on me!
