Hands On Assists

Join us for a fun and informative weekend workshop designed to deepen your skills in the art of hands-on assists. This training will help you gain confidence in assisting as you develop clarity, precision, and presence in your touch.

We’ll explore:
• Alignment Assists – supporting students in discovering safe and effective posture.
• Feel-Good Assists – offering grounding, relaxing, and nurturing touch.

Throughout the weekend, we’ll also explore how to offer assists during flow-based practices, and how sequencing through the body’s seven loops can inform where and how to support your students.

Key Learning Points:
• Practicing consent and communication with every assist.
• Moving with grace and ease, staying present in your own body as you support another.
• Assessing foundations and unique concerns to personalize your approach.
• Using breath to guide timing and depth of assists.
• Honoring alignment principles while respecting individual variation.

This workshop is open to yoga teachers and dedicated students alike. Expect a balance of practice, discussion, and plenty of hands-on exploration. Come ready to learn, connect, and have fun as we refine the art of skillful, heart-centered assists.
