50H Anatomy in Yoga: a User’s Guide with Julia
Updated: 4 days ago
🇧🇪 BRUSSELS
January 2027
This 50-hour training offers a practical, movement-based approach to anatomy for yoga teachers and students. The course includes lectures on the basics of anatomy with practical exercises to gain a better functional understanding through movement and yoga postures. You will be able to apply what you learn directly to your own practice or in teaching others. The course covers physical and subtle anatomy, and the biomechanics that underlie safe and effective movements.
We will break down common postures to understand alignment and movement patterns. We will focus on sequencing from an anatomical perspective, learning how to build classes that support the body. We will dive into breathing mechanics and explore various body systems. We will look at how we can prevent and manage injuries and how to support students with common conditions.
By the end of the training, you will leave with practical tools: a solid understanding of body movement, confidence in sequencing for anatomy, an ability to explain anatomy in simple clear language, and skills to support your long-term health and/or that of your students.

Julia Hyde
Julia’s yoga journey started in 2001 at an artist residency in Cyprus where a friend taught her a few sun salutations between sessions in the art studio. From then on, she continued to cultivate her home practice, taking classes and attending workshops. Julia received her 200-hour vinyasa yoga teacher training certification from Yoga Moves in Utrecht, where she also completed a restorative yoga training with Lizzie Lasater. After becoming a full-time yoga teacher, Julia launched herself into an advanced teacher training (300h) with Jason Crandell at Triyoga in London in 2018. Julia teaches an alignment-focused flow yoga with an emphasis on creating space and time for the breath, cultivating a sense of balance in the practice.
