Take your yoga teaching to the next level. It’s great to work our meridians, but when you know that while stretching your stomach meridian, you can also stretch your psoas muscle, which has a strong relationship to your kidney, your fear reflexes and your hormone flow and by knowing where the psoas originates and inserts in the body, you can access it and release it much more effectively!! Learn lots of similar tricks with other parts of the body to go further in your teaching abilities and the results you achieve.

If we understand the way muscles work, we have more chance of releasing them, which also gives us more access to our poses and the meridians!!!

Janie has been teaching yoga since 1999 and before that was a successful personal fitness trainer (since 1994). She began her work with the body with competitive trampolining and springboard diving from the age of 12. She was State Champion in diving in 1987 and spent some time at diving camps at the Australian Institute of Sport where she was first introduced to strength and conditioning training.

Janie has been particularly successful with clients who have debilitating back pain often with so much degeneration that no physio, chiro nor oesto has been able to help. These health professionals have told clients that they would be on medication for the rest of their lives and others that they would need an operation. All of these clients have had success in becoming pain free in only a few short sessions with Zen Ki Yoga® classes (not even requiring private sessions).

Once you really understand where your muscles are, which bones they attach to and where they originate, you can easily work out how to go deeper in poses with only a tiny little adjustment from the client (without you needing to touch them at all). Find out how in this amazing, easy to understand course.

Testimonial for this course...

As a Ki Yoga teacher who has had a few years away from teaching, not to meniton even more time spent away from the Ki Yoga Community due to distance, I have found learning through Janie the most refreshing experience.

I have been able to easily build on the foundation of what I had already learnt through the wealth of practical experience, evolved knowledge and passionate enthusiasm that Janie holds for Japanese yoga as a complete healing system.

I feel I have been able to (and continue to) round out my learning in areas where I was previously left with question marks, such as having a more functional understanding of the spectrum between physical mechinics, body alignment and the meridian system in yoga postures. I feel the most powerful thing for me yet, is experiencing the postures in new ways that Janie has refined and tuned. I have had lots of 'a-ha' and 'of course' moments where puzzle pieces have fit together.

With Japanese yoga we are not yet privy to such readily available sources of information that other lineages of yoga hold, even though the wisdoms we draw on are centuries old. So for me it has been a blessing to find someone who continues to refine, build and share this amazing system with her students and the greater community.

As a student I have found her wealth of knowledge easy to digest either through face-to-face learning or distance education and this continues to give me confidence in teaching once again as well as excitement that this awesome healing system is growing in competent hands.

It really is a wonderful feeling to be back on the horse.
