Assists have been a topic of hot debate for years in the yoga community – even more so in the time of COVID. So how, as teachers, can we safely and effectively assist our students in their yoga practice? This practicum will provide ethical and strategic foundation for delivering assists and provide clarity around verbal, demonstrated and hands-on assists. In addition, this session will review key anatomical and postural markers that can help teachers figure out when and how to provide a physical assist to a student. Teachers will have the option of practicing both “hands-on” and “hands-off” assists based on their comfort level at the time of the session.
This course is a part of the JOY of Yoga 300-Hour Teacher Training Core Curriculum, and also open to the public. If you are interested in pursuing a 300-hour certification, you can apply and register at any time and, once accepted, begin taking Electives, even before completing the Core Curriculum.
This workshop will be conducted in-studio and online via Zoom.
Password and instructions will be sent privately to registrants 30 minutes before workshop begins.
