Week 1: September 2-8, 2024

I’m so excited to kick things off with our very first week of Yoga Asana Analysis!

This week’s course material covers introductory foundational concepts for analyzing movement, plus three yoga asanas: downward facing dog, cobra pose, and upward facing dog.


As a reminder, you’ll have this full week to:

  • watch the video content (below)

  • complete the quick quiz on these videos (below)

  • and share your answer to this week’s homework question in our cohort forum. (Homework Q posted below!)

Please complete these assignments by the end of the day on Sunday, September 8th.

And remember, I’ll be present in the cohort forum all week to read and review everyone’s homework submissions, and I’ll also be there to answer any and all questions that might come up for you about this week’s course material!

I hope you enjoy your content for this week, and I’ll see you in the forum!

Homework question for week 1

Please post your response to this question in the “Homework Answers: Week 1” thread in our cohort forum!

What is one piece of information or insight from this week’s course content that you’ll bring with you into your yoga teaching or practice this coming week, and why?

(This can be anything that was covered – big or small! – in any of the videos: Foundational Concepts, Downward Dog, or Cobra & Up Dog. And no need to write a 2,500-word college essay—just a quick response with your thoughts will be perfect! 😀)

**Reminder: In an attempt to keep our cohort forum easy to navigate :), please post your homework answer in the single thread that’s specifically for our Week 1 homework. It’s pinned to the top of our “Yoga Asana Analysis Course Fall 2024” space in the forum!
