​HANDS-ON ADJUSTMENTS WORKSHOP
LED BY KILTY INAFUKU
​With over two years of social distancing, our world is craving physical touch. We'll spend two days improving your skills at giving hands-on adjustments. This course is primarily intended for yoga teachers but can support anyone in the realm of fitness and bodywork. My goal is to introduce fundamental concepts with regards to physical touch in a yoga space and give you the opportunity to practice different adjustments on different bodies. This is a key component because all bodies are unique, feel different, and may respond in their own way.

You should walk away with three things: 1. a stronger sense of which bodies can benefit from certain adjustments 2. a more confident touch and 3. a clear idea of how to communicate with your words and your hands. I hope to share adjustments that feel good foor your students and invite them to explore their practice further.

We will explore and practice adjustments for:
  • Sun Salutations
  • Standing and Balancing Postures
  • Forward Folding Postures
  • Backbends
  • Side Bends
  • Inversions
  • Savasana​
Saturday, July 2 | 9-12p, 1-5p (7 hours)
Sunday July 3 | 10-12p, 1-4p (5 hours)

Location at Hot Yoga By the Sea in Kailua, O'ahu
​Investment is $275 for the first 8 people ($325 after that)

​MOBILITY & BIOMECHANICS WORKSHOP
LED BY NAM CHANTERRWYN


I am beyond excited to host a dear friend and teacher on O'ahu this summer 2022. This workshops was actually supposed to happen 2 years ago in 2020. NAM CHANTERRWYN is extremely intelligent, experienced, and generous when it comes to sharing his knowledge and methodology. I'm so grateful to have met him while in studying in San Francisco with Jason Crandell. I'm excited for him to bring his signature workshops to Oahu that can benefit yogis, yoga teachers, bodyworkers, and any professional in the field of body movement.
​
This course is appropriate for teachers and students alike who are curious about the science behind mobility and positive tissue change. The way we teach modern movement, whether it be yoga, Pilates, Barre, or any other modality, is rapidly evolving based on new research. This workshop is designed to keep you current and informed by current biomechanics research and sports science. 

I believe this course is valuable for all yoga teachers, serious students, movement practitioners and body workers.

​Through my conversations with teachers and students, I have learned that there is a general misunderstanding of what "Biomechanics" actually is, and how to apply it to the practice of yoga. Biomechanics is not about alignment or functional movement. It is actually the study of how human tissue responds to force, and how to use force to affect positive change in movement and mobility.

Topics will include:
  • Differentiating between Anatomy and Biomechanical principles
  • Tissue adaptation
  • Resistance stretching and Isometrics
  • Movement and Mobility
  • Skillful deviation of traditional yoga alignment
  • Improving control and range of motion
  • Tendonopathy and tissue strain

​Friday, July 15 | 5 - 8p (3 hours)
Saturday, July 16 | 9-12p, 1-5p (7 hours)
Sunday July 18 | 10-12p, 1-4p (5 hours)
​

Location at Hot Yoga By the Sea in Kailua, O'ahu
​Investment is $350 for the first 8 people ($400 after that) OR take the Friday evening masterclass for $50

NAM CHANTERRWYN

Nam is an E-CYT500 teacher who has trained under Jason Crandell and been featured on Yoga International. As a student of yoga and functional movement modalities, his yoga classes are grounded in strength, anatomical detail and mindfulness. Nam focuses detailed verbal cues and expert hands on adjustments/assists to help his students find a fuller experience in their yoga practice; emphasizing specific learning objectives in each of his classes. Nam's belief is that teaching yoga is just like teaching any other subject, in that the teacher has a responsibility to not just provide a unique experience, but to educate their students on the subject itself. Whether taking his restorative or vinyasa class, students can expect to explore their strengths, work on focus, and learn to about the subject of yoga on and off the mat.

Nam has worked with professional athletes in the NFL, MLB, and NBA in a myriad of ways such as aiding in recovery from injuries, maintaining strength and flexibility Pre/Post season, improving range of motion, and increasing strength at the end range of motion. He has worked with other private clients as well, to help them recover from injury, improve their skills in specific yoga postures, and/or find mindfulness and stress reduction.
As a YACEP (Yoga Alliance Continuing Education Provider) educator, Nam has been considered by his community as a "Teachers Teacher" who enjoys helping students as well as other teachers further their study and understanding of yoga and movement.
