The afternoon includes:

1. Understanding the Kleshas (1 to 1.5 hrs)�A lecture and group discussion on the five kleshas, the subtle patterns that shape how we see and respond to students. This session explores how awareness, compassion and clarity create the foundation for safe and skillful teaching.

2. Instruction, Adjustment Theory and Practical Assists (2.5 hrs)�A detailed exploration of hands-on assisting. Participants will learn how to see postures more clearly, how to offer grounded and supportive touch, and how to work with students of all bodies and abilities. The focus is on relational, sensitive and anatomically aware teaching.

You will learn:

• How to recognise internal patterns that influence your teaching
• Principles of safe and effective hands-on assists
• How to read bodies with more nuance and spaciousness
• How to meet students where they are with confidence and care
• Practical skills for supporting students in a Mysore or led-class setting

This workshop is suitable for teachers, teacher trainees and committed practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of the art of assisting.

Scott’s approach is steady, compassionate and grounded in over 20 years of teaching Mysore-style Ashtanga yoga. His emphasis is always on clarity, presence and the human connection at the heart of yoga practice.

He says “I look forward to sharing this rich afternoon of learning with you.”
