About this Event
Come get inspired as we ask the big questions surrounding the art of hands on assists! Why do an adjustment at all? How do I do one safely? Where do I touch, and how much pressure? As a student, how can I best receive an adjustment?
Whether you're already teaching and want to learn new skills, or you're a practitioner looking to better understand the technique of hands on assists, this course is for anyone called to deepen their knowledge of yoga poses and their benefits.
Touch is a powerful form of communication and is oftentimes much more successful than demonstrating or verbally explaining a pose. Good alignment and assists, when informed by breath, philosophy and a meditative mind can unlock the magic of yoga practice. Under Joseph's energetic and fun loving guidance, you will leave with some new friends, feeling confident in knowing when, why and how to use these adjustments.
Topics covered:
• Why assist at all?
• Technical and Energetic Approaches
• Teaching Methodology
• Entering and Exiting Adjustments
• Breath and Bandha

• Balancing Effort and Ease
• How to approach different body and personality types
