Health and Movement — Yoga Vocabulary Supervised movement-card reference

Learning objectives

Recognise pose names and the body positions illustrated on the cards
Follow movement prompts slowly and within a comfortable range
Distinguish general movement practice from medical advice

Concepts and principles

A pose description explains a body position; it does not prove that the pose treats a disease or guarantees a health outcome.
Safe participation depends on suitable space, supervision, individual mobility and stopping when movement causes pain, dizziness or difficulty breathing.

Examples and worked solutions

A card names Tree Pose. What is an appropriate learning goal for the card?: Worked solution: Identify the pose and practise controlled balance with suitable support—not claim that it cures a condition.

Try this activity

Browse the cards before choosing any movement to attempt
Describe the main body position using neutral terms such as standing, seated, balance or stretch
Use adult guidance and skip any pose that is unsuitable for the learner or setting

Expected observations and explanations

Different learners can have different comfortable ranges; matching a picture exactly is less important than controlled, pain-free movement.

Assessment questions and answers

Does completing a pose card prove that a medical condition has been treated?: Answer: No. The cards are movement prompts, not medical diagnosis or treatment.
What should a learner do if a movement causes pain or dizziness?: Answer: Stop and tell the supervising adult; do not force the pose.
