with Kim Faris McKenzie, 500-Hour RYT + YACEP
Sunday, January 24, 2027 | 11:00 am–4:00 pm
Centred on Yoga
$99 | 5 Yoga Alliance CEUs
Calling all 200-hour RYTs and above! Take your teaching up a notch with Kim as you build confidence in safe, intentional, and supportive hands-on assists.
Thoughtful touch can be an incredibly powerful teaching tool. This 5-hour training is designed to give yoga teachers practical experience giving and receiving hands-on assists while learning how to incorporate them safely, respectfully, and confidently into their own classes.
We’ll explore assists that can translate across a variety of class styles and levels, from Power and Vinyasa to Gentle, Yin, and slower practices. We’ll also spend time on those yummy, grounding Savasana assists that can add something extra special to the end of a practice.
Throughout the training, we’ll explore:
• When, why, and how to offer hands-on assists
• Safety, consent, communication, and boundaries
• Navigating different body types and genders
• Building confidence with intentional touch
• Proper positioning and technique
• Assists that can be adapted across different styles of yoga
• Grounding and supportive Savasana assists
We’ll begin by warming up and getting into our own bodies before moving into hands-on practice. Kim will break down each assist, followed by time to practice giving and receiving it with one another. We’ll take a lunch break midway through the day, return for more hands-on work, and finish together with Savasana.
Your registration includes:
• 5 hours of in-person training
• 5 Yoga Alliance Continuing Education hours (CEUs)
• Hands-on practice giving and receiving assists
• A training manual to take home and reference in your teaching
Investment: $99
This training is open to yoga teachers who have completed a minimum 200-hour yoga teacher training.
Space is limited and registration is non-refundable. Come learn, practice, ask questions, and leave with more confidence bringing intentional hands-on assists into your classes!
