Master Class & Seminar Questions & Answers
What is the Master Class? Think of the master class as a long version of a regular Bikram yoga class. The reason it is longer is because Emmy will explain technical aspects of each posture and give tips, ideas and corrections as well. This is normally not done in a regular class because:
1. there is simply no time
2. there are few teachers that have the knowledge, experience and expertise to do this
The result: you will learn how to correctly perform each posture, gain a better understanding of the posture sequence and appreciate yoga from a scientific point of view.
Who Is Emmy Cleaves? A yoga master in her own right, Emmy’s life story is an amazing tale of determination spanning two continents, a world war and a near fatal medical emergency that changed her outlook on life and prompted her pursue her present career path as a yoga and health educator. She nursed herself back to health and went even further to validate yoga health benefits and research health and nutrition. Her discoveries were never before revealed until now. Featured in American Yoga (Barnes & Noble 2003) Emmy is considered an American Yoga Master.
What about the seminar? Now you know about Emmy’s yoga credentials. She is also a walking encyclopedia of health, fitness and wellness knowledge. We asked Emmy if she would do the seminar because she has been so helpful to Huiping over the years and we felt the information she provides should be made available to the public. Some of the topics to be covered are health and well being, diet and nutrition, and how to live well at any age.
How is the Master Class & Seminar related to Golden Week Promotion? The Master Class is a one day class and seminar on Saturday, August 5. It will not be in a heated room and will be a large group class. The Golden Week Promotion is a full week of classes starting Monday July 31 until Sunday August 6. It includes the Master Class & Seminar on Saturday, August 5 and Emmy’s Advanced Bikram Class on Sunday August 6.
Emmy's Advanced Bikram Yoga Class
Date: August 6, 2006
Day: Sunday
Time: 11:00 - 12:30
Venue: Pacific Century Club (hot studio)
Fee: RMB250
A regular Bikram class uses 26 postures which Bikram selected from these 84. Many of these postures are considered advanced and should not be attempted by novices. Emmy teaches this class regularly at Bikram headquarters in Los Angeles. Only Bikram and Emmy teach this class and it is not open to the public. Only advanced yoga teachers are allowed to participate in this class. This is a rare opportunity to
take part in an advanced Bikram class. Should you not be able to perform a posture please take a break and wait for the next one. Spectators are welcome as long as you are in the class. Due to space limitations viewing will be prohibited from outside the studio.
Watching Emmy glide through 84 postures in 90 minutes is worth the price of admission. You will witness a true yoga master in action--just don't try to keep up with her (!).
CAUTION: Some of these postures are very technically advanced. Please do not attempt to do them at this time.

高级课及研讨会问答内容:
高级课的定义是什么?
高级课程在语言上会比正规比克拉姆瑜珈描述更完善时间更长。时间长的原因是Emmy将会详细讲解每一个姿势的技术要领, 并且会给出课程的关键, 理念, 纠正错误动作. 正规课程之所以不包含上述内容的原因为:
1． 没有时间;
2．很少有教师能够像Emmy那样有渊博的知识及专业经验.
结果是: 您会正确掌握每个动作, 更好地了解每个动作的效果, 对瑜珈有更科学的认识.
Emmy Cleaves的经历:
作为一名瑜珈大师, 她的传奇故事横跨两个大洲, 经历一次世界大战,还有一次致命的疾病后, 由此改变了她的生活态度, 使她成为一名瑜珈大师及健康问题专家. 她不仅使自己恢复了健康, 还总结出了瑜珈对于人们健康方面的意义, 并开始研究健康问题及营养学. 她从不隐瞒她的发现而是尽可能让人们了解它并从中受益. 她渊博的知识及作为瑜珈大师的技巧让人羡慕. 2006年8月6日(周日)11:00-12:30, 她会在盈科会所教授比克拉姆瑜珈高级课程. 您听说过吗? 因为只有比克拉姆本人和Emmy才有资格教授比克拉姆瑜珈高级课和. 本次课程不对外开放, 因为参加者首先必须是瑜珈教练, 其次应具备一定基础. 高级课包括84个动作, 需要在两个小时之内完成. 尽你所能，欢迎参加。尽可能让自己放松同时欣赏瑜珈大师精彩示范.
研讨会内容:
Emmy还是一本活的百科全书, 她的知识涵盖健康, 健身及如何使个人身心完美. 这些年她给予Huiping很大帮助, 而且我们也想把她提供的信息及知识供之于众. 这次研讨会涉及的话题包括健康, 饮食及营养学, 对不同年龄的听众都会有所帮助.
高级课&研讨会及“黄金周”的关系:
高级课及研讨会定于2006-8-5(周六), 在常温室内进行, 规模较大.
“黄金周”包含一周的课程, 从7月31日至8月6日, 还包括2006-8-5(周六)的高级课及研讨会
Emmy的高级比克拉姆瑜珈课程
日期 2006年8月6日
星期：星期日
时间：11:00 - 12:30
地点： 盈科会所（高温瑜珈房）
费用：250元
正规的比克拉姆课程是比克拉姆从84个动作中挑选出来的26个动作。这些动作中的很多姿势被认为是高难度的。Emmy教授的正规课程是在洛杉矶比克拉姆总部。只有比克拉姆和Emmy可教授该课程并不面向全世界，只有高级瑜珈教练才可以来完成它。能够参加这样的课程的确是一个难得的机会。如果你无法完成某个动作请稍示休息来等待下一个动作。一直期望着您可以加入我们的课程。由于场地有限，请勿在瑜珈室外观望。
注意：这些动作技术性较强，因此请不要长时间练习。

慧萍与Emmy会轮流教授课程，慧萍的课程依然是正规的比克拉姆有声课程.
Emmy所教授的为自修课程这就意味着很少会有语言上的指导。慧萍会参加每一堂课并做相关解释，与Emmy一同来完成课程. 她会演示每一个动作然后学生按照她的指示去做. 参加Emmy自修课的同时如果你有任何经验之谈，那对于我们来说都是会有所帮助的。Emmy 和 Huiping 会在每一堂课结束时提出问题. 这是一种较正式的交流，且通常会持续30至40分钟. 黄金周课程推广活动如下但不包括由John来教授的晚间课程
