Prior to COVID, offering hands-on assists in a yoga class was commonplace. In the post-COVID world of distance and space, hands-on assists got left out of YTTs and became less commonplace in classes. But touch can be an important way to offer support and relaxation, communicate compassion and acceptance, and help your students find their full potential in a pose.
In this weekend workshop with Carrboro Yoga's 200-hour lead teacher trainer Alexandra DeSiato, we will:
+ discuss why assists are offered
+ explore the most common shapes to assist
+ practice the hands-on assists you learn
+ look at the concerns around assists, including consent and students misunderstanding the purpose of hands-on yoga
You'll leave the weekend ready to offer safe hands-on assists, confident in the value they add to your yoga teaching, and ready to level up your classes.
This workshop, which is part of our 300/500-hour advanced studies yoga teacher training, is also open to teachers from any movement modality.
