This yoga course is focused on proper alignment and meant for students of all levels, from those who have a little yoga experience to those who are teachers. We will cover proper alignment techniques for popular yoga poses and strategies for avoiding injuries in your practice. This course comes with 11 full length sessions with me so you can put to practice immediately what you’ve learned.
We will break down and practice poses that you’ll most often see in my classes and most Hatha yoga teachers’ classes. We’ll look at poses where the front leg is neutrally rotated in the pelvis and poses where the front leg is in external rotation. We’ll also break down sun salutations (Surya Namaskar A and B) and variations. We also practice proper alignment in chatturanga, upward dog and downward dog. Inversions are discussed and practiced as well.
Our course is structured so that you’ll watch the interactive lectures first and then practice the 30-minute vinyasa flow classes. The course will take you about 8 hours to complete. I would recommend practicing one section at a time and then the practice. Each section will take 45 minutes to an hour to complete (including the practice) and I’ve included quiz’s after each lecture to be sure the information stays with you.
Take this course if you love yoga! I want us all to practice until we’re well into our 90’s, so let’s make our alignment as good as it can be. This course is based on my 10 years of teaching as well as my experience as a teacher trainer. I’ve taught over ten 200-hour teacher training courses through YogaWorks and I’m also a teacher on the faculty of the 300-hour professional program. The YogaWorks method is the “Gold Standard” of teacher training, so the information you’ll receive here is awesome!
Who this course is for:
- This yoga course is meant for students who have a little yoga experience to those who are teachers.
- New students will benefit from the specific alignment instructions.
- Intermediate and advanced practitioners will enjoy the subtle actions in the body on a deeper level.
- Yoga teachers will gain new ways of teaching postures.

I loved it, it’s important to learn to align, even more if you are learning Yoga without a teacher. The course is well composed, explained clearly, and if there is any question Lesley responds on anything you ask. It’s as if you had your personal yoga teacher at home.

This course is really worth it, I learnt so much even though I have been practising for a few years. There were so many adjustments that made previously frustrating poses much more accessible. I would recommend this for anyone new or old to yoga.

I really enjoyed this course – it was extremely helpful and I am sure it has improved my practice overall. The last lesson was the only one where I could not do a single one of the new poses, but I didn’t mind because I know how to get to crane pose with practice, and then I will work on each of the others. Thank you so much for this calm oasis in my weekends.
One thing has confused me – I have done all parts of the course but it seems some have not registered. I don’t mind as I didn’t do the course for a certificate, but it seems there is a glitch somewhere.
Best wishes

I loved this course! I will re-visit it whenever I feel that I need a refresher. Highly recommend to all yogis.

This is a wonderful course if you practice Yoga at home. Poses are taken apart and the how and especially the why of alignment is explained and discussed in a clear way. Sometimes Lesley offers two or more options for (getting into) one pose, which is comfortable and makes you ‘listen’ to your own body even better.
In the first lessons I thought more poses to practice directly together would be have been nice. So, when explaining you can use this in plank and chaturanga I would like to practice that a bit more together.
I like the practice video’s with voice over. I keeps the flow into the several exercises you are going true. Lesley’s timing is excellent. Udemy offers this rewind function which can be useful now and than This course is worth every penny. Thank you.

Each lesson I start, thinking, oh, just a few minutes. Then I am drawn into the lesson, and go further. I’m an intermediate yoga student, and the pacing is perfect. I thought I knew more about my alignment, and am humbled to find I’ve got a lot to learn, and I’m learning it with Lesley. When Lesley said good-bye and waved, I told her she is wonderful (to the video screen, of course!). That sums up my rating best.
I’m learning so much, and really enjoy the convenience of practicing in my home with a superb yoga instructor. Lesley is so easy to listen to and watch, and the videos are the best I’ve seen. As a mostly-at-home practitioner, I’ve watched many yoga videos so I know quality when I see it.

Lesley is a wonderful teacher, and is the reason why my life changed about 6 months ago when I found her channel on youtube. My development is constant ever since. Poses which seemed impossible half-a-year ago are now accessible to me and I am even enjoying them. This course is a must to everyone who practices at home. I gained and learned a lot from this course, I pay now much more attention to my alignment when practicing yoga, but even when I am on my bicycle on my way to work. I am a new person and will become stronger and healthier every day. Can’t wait for Lesley’s Ashtanga course to come out! Thank you for this wonderful course, it felt like as if she was my personal teacher during these 11 days 🙂

Thank you Lesley for putting so much thought into this course. I am a beginner and went to a few group classes before. I wasn’t sure if I am doing it correctly, was just able to follow everybody in the room at their pace. With this alignment course, I get to learn the proper posture and alignment to do each pose. Through that, getting and feeling the right stretch for my body. Thank you very much.
