Unit purpose
Unit 1 introduces participants to yoga through body awareness, movement exploration, and grounding experiences. Rather than beginning with expectations for specific yoga poses, participants are invited to notice their bodies, explore different positions and movements, and discover what feels supportive to them. The goal is not stillness or perfect imitation. The goal is awareness, access, exploration, and choice.
