ZOGA 

Instructors: Wojtek Cackowski

Organizational Host: Anatomy Trains

Credits:  21 IASI Category 1 

Course Description:

ZOGA: Zoga is a stretching and strengthening practice based on yoga asanas using Anatomy Trains Structural Integration principles. Zoga is specifically designed to increase the freedom of glide between myofascial layers of the body.
The human body is designed to move from our center of gravity into all available directions. Zoga includes all these possibilities in assessment and therapy.
Zoga practice allows you to:

• Bodyread where lack of glide and "give" are occurring in the body
• Use movement and manual guidance to elicit efficient and balanced movement
• Achieve a balanced and "minimum energy" resting posture

In this 3-day Zoga introductory workshop you will learn:

• How myofascial layers move on each other in the stretch
• How Anatomy Trains Lines adapt to stretching
• How specific positioning within asana creates fascial stretch and gliding challenges
• Visual assessment of posture and movement that lead to new intervention strategies
• How to help students/clients find and open those obscure and stubborn "corners" in the moving body
• Training in manual interventions
