Masterful Teachers Series: Yoga for Feet, Knees & Legs with Donald Moyer

In this workshop, we will develop awareness of the feet, knees and legs in a wide variety of poses. In particular, we will learn how to balance the inner and the outer arches, activate the transverse arch, and align the calves and the hamstrings to strengthen and protect the knees. At least six month’s experience of yoga is recommended. 

Donald Moyer, founding director of The Yoga Room in Berkeley, California, has been practicing Iyengar yoga since 1971 and teaching since 1974. He studied extensively with B.K.S. Iyengar in India from 1976–1988 and continues to be inspired by his work. Donald wrote the Asana column for Yoga Journal in 1987, 1989, and 1992, and is the author of Yoga: Awakening the Inner Body (Rodmell Press: 2006).
