Integrating Yoga with Anatomy and Physiology Workshop Series by Ace Pittas

 

Sunday 17th May 2020 - Integrating Neurology with Yoga 

 

Since the beginning of my yoga practice, going back 16 years ago in Thailand, I had the chance to use my initial yoga knowledge integrated with neurological physiotherapy to help my best friend who suffered half body paralysis after he had a stroke. Little by little through the daily passive yoga movement I gave to him, he moved and was able to walk within a year. 

 

Integrating Neurology with Yoga will use an exploration of case studies with a discussion on how yoga can be integrated with neurology. The session will be taught by Ace Pittapan and Sonia Perez Baeza. Case studies cover yoga therapy for post-treatment on deteriorated movement, amputees, and movement for senior persons.

About Ace Pittapan 

 

Ace Pittapan was born in Thailand. He first started practising yoga in the middle of 2004. Yoga was introduced to him by a friend as the most suitable remedy to cure his insomnia. After months of practising regularly, he realised that his insomnia had stopped.

 

He has a background in marketing, with multi-functional roles in conference organisation mostly involving the Medical Association Group in Thailand. He was part of several World-class Medical and Health conferences. 

 

Ace has practised and studied yoga with different teachers to cover a variety of styles of yoga and meditation, as well as additional studies in Pilates and Thai massage. Ace has combined this diverse knowledge and designed flow movement sessions that maximise the benefits of Hatha-Vinyasa yoga.
