Intro to Iron Flow
Description: The two biggest challenges for a strength trainer/yoga teacher teacher is talking yogi’s into picking up heavy weights to work resistance and talking those addicted to lifting heavy or that love high intensity workouts into slowing it down to address mobility issues and develop a deeper mind/body connection. Iron Flow bridges that gap. It is an extremely efficient and effective workout that brings the best of both worlds to the mat.
Intro to Iron Flow is a pre-requisite for our Level 1 and Level 2 Iron Flow Courses. If you are a yogi with a 200 hr certification or equivalent you do not need this course, your are ready to register for Iron Flow Level 1. If you are a PT, Personal or Group Fitness Trainer, (with a certification) and want to add Iron Flow to your offerings, or if you are a lover of Crossfit and lifting heavy and are ready to dip your toes into the idea of adding weight to yoga, or adding yoga to weights, this session is for you. It was developed for those who do not have a yoga background to familiarize you with the anatomy, and language of yoga as well as sequencing you will need to compliment the kettlebell moments. You will become aware of the more subtle aspects of the practice so that you may help students create ownership of their bodies and how they will use them safely.
