Welcome to this episode with Yoga and Anatomy with Dr. Trish Corley. In this episode, we explore the connection between movement science and yoga with Dr. Trish Corley, a Doctor of Physical Therapy, yoga anatomy educator, and founder of Yoga Anatomy School. With her background in physiotherapy and anatomy education, Trish helps yoga teachers better understand the human body so they can teach with greater confidence, clarity, and care.
Throughout the conversation, Trish explains how a strong understanding of anatomy can make yoga classes safer, more effective, and more inclusive. She discusses the importance of clear communication, and the thoughtful use of props and modifications to support students of all ages, abilities, and body types. Rather than relying on rigid rules, she encourages teachers to understand the "why" behind movement so they can adapt their teaching to meet individual needs.
Whether you are a yoga teacher looking to deepen your knowledge or a practitioner interested in the science of movement, this episode offers practical insights into creating accessible, empowering, and anatomy-informed yoga experiences.
