A Functional Anatomy course that will blow your mind!
Let’s be honest……Anatomy is the weakest link in most yoga teacher trainings. Yet it’s one of the most important components of our modern yoga that a yoga teacher needs to know!
Why? Well, essentially as a yoga teacher, in a yoga class, you guide students to move their bodies!
As a yoga teacher, if you don’t know how bodies move, work and function from the depth of the bones to the surface of the skin, you may find yourself in all sorts of trouble!
Often amongst yogis (teachers and students alike) understanding anatomy is taken with a grain of salt.
Therefore, you may find yourself in trouble when practicing and teaching asanas. Your job as a yoga teacher is to guide your students as safely as possible in their yoga asana practice. As a yoga student, it is your responsibility to move your body so it serves, lifts, and empowers you!
Understanding functional anatomy in motion is your solution!
Are you a teacher or practitioner feeling that you don’t know your anatomy and physiology?
Maybe you feel anatomy is boring and really ‘hard to get’?
Do you think of anatomy as dull, dusty and tedious?
If so, this is for you!
And the best part, you will really enjoy it!!!
Mysan has a really high success rate in creating anatomy nerds out of anatomy haters!! This course will not only get you to understand anatomy, bodies, and asana in motion, but you will do so while laughing and being deeply inspired! This training will leave you in awe of our human bodies!
And as a teacher, you better get excited because your classes are about to become so popular that there is always a full house with a waiting list!!!
Teachers that know this stuff become highly successful! Your classes will be safe and powerful, balancing and nurturing from the base of functional anatomy and that’s when we can add on the wonderful practices of yoga philosophy creating a class that will blow your students minds! In a really awesome way!

Course Outline
Love Your Bones! A 30 hour functional anatomy and physiology course.
Anatomy and physiology is hugely important component of any yoga teacher’s toolbox! Our aim is to provide you with the ability to enable your students to practice asana according to their individual needs and abilities, providing maximum benefit to each student.
If we do not know functional and fundamental anatomy it will be hard to gain the deeper understanding of the yogic physiology and philosophy since it is all linked and connected.
This foundation 30-hour anatomy component will set you up to have a great understanding of the body and the anatomy/physiology needed when teaching yoga classes.
We will develop a thorough understanding of the musculoskeletal system from the bones and out to the muscles. We will gain x-ray vison so we can clearly see what our students need when teaching. Through this training we will have gained the tools and knowledge on how to assist them. Functional yoga is not a yoga style but can be applied to any yoga style. Know your functional anatomy to take your yoga to a new level!
Love Your Bones will teach you:
- The main bones of the body as well as bony protrusions (where tendon and ligaments attach), essential knowledge to understand each student's individual range of motion, movements, and ability.
- The main muscles/myofascia of the body that we need to fully understand our yoga asana.
- The anatomic connection of muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia
- What range of motion is/where it comes from and how it works/looks in the body.
- Learning how to see/understand when a person reaches their full range of motion in an asana.
- What tension and compression is, as well as gaining the ability to see when students are in compression or tension in the body. Understanding the purpose of the asana and making sure that the students are applying that purpose, whether it is tension, compression, or both.
- We look at what muscle groups move what body parts and how we move from those parts.
- Learning to understand the composition of joints (what makes up a joint, bursa, synovial fluid, fascia and hydration information).
- Learning the base knowledge of fascia.
- Leaning what to look at/for in each student, with a sense of x-ray vison to assist them into their optimal way of practicing each pose.
- We will thoroughly go through the respiratory system - how the breath works and understand which muscles we use to breathe and understanding the lungs as an organ.
- We will thoroughly explore the musculoskeletal system of the body as well as touching on the other systems (such as the digestive system and endocrine system) of the body so we can understand students even better when teaching yoga.
- From an anatomy/physiology perspective we will learn and understand our 3 main bandhas (Mulha Bandha, Uddiyana Bandha, Jalandhara Bandha). 2 other bandhas will be discussed and studied.
