The Dynamic Yoga Intermediate Course classes allow you to devlelop a rich, challenging, satisfying and ongoing selfpractice. There are three linked modules, that can be fruitfully repeated any number of times. They give you a firm, variable basis for your own yoga practice at home. The Dynamic Yoga Form week is eligible to anyone whose completion of the Dynamic Yoga Foundation Course has effectively prepared them for the transition to selfpractice. The Yoga Selfpractice week is open to anyone ready for selfpractice, even if they have not trained in the Dynamic Yoga Method. (Those who have not attended the Foundation Course must attend an introductory session).

The Form Module focusses on the form of the postures. It clarifies the fact that all postures share the same internal dynamic of integrity. This is the application of the bandhas to each and every part of the body (sarvangabandha). The structural (broadening&lengthening) dynamic and energetic (spiralling) dynamic of the bandhas are used to integrate intention, action, attention, energy and structure. The yoga postures used in all these classes clarify most easily the dynamics of integrity, and establish the basis for selfpractice. They are presented in the Vinyasanixisya practice series. The activation of the bandhas from the breath is taught as a complement to their structural invitation. There are five morning and afternoon classes.

The Practice Module uses postures learned in the form module as the basis of four different practice formats. The Vinyasayogasya Practice Series (monday, thursday) which focusses on deep structural reintegration, and the Vinyasavajrasya Practice Series (tuesday, friday) which focusses on safe mobilisation of the spine, the Vinyasadynasya Practice Series (thursday) which focusses on nourishing the body and sustaining its capacities, and the Vinyasamuktasya Practice Series (tuesday, thursday) which focusses on deep psychosomatic release. Variations are shown to permit the sequences to be personalised according to ability and condition. There is much less instruction than in the Foundation Courses allowing you to deepen and clarify your internal awareness. It may be that some or all of the Dynamic Yoga Foundation Course needs to be repeated before taking this module. It will familiarise you with consistent practice formats that you can use as the basis of your self practice. Practice sheets, personalised if necessary, will be provided to facilitate your progress in each seies. There are 5 morning classes, two afternoon classes each week.

The Self Practice Module allows you to choose, modify, refine and develop you own practice sequences under experienced guidance. Any sequence that works for you can be used, whether based on ashtanga, vinyasa, power, flow or any other yogastyle. Specific sequences for particular circumstances and intentions can be given. It is a fantastic opportunity to find support to base your own practice on the ongoing needs and capabilities of your own body. There are 5 morning classes, two afternoon classes each week. During the self practice week strong emphasis is given to the role of meditation in yoga practice. All participants are asked to start their practice to flow naturally into meditation. For those who have not attended the Dynamic Yoga Foundation Course attendance of an introductory session on sunday is obligatory.
