📣Calling all Yoga Teachers & Trainees in Yorkshire📣
Join us for a special, one day workshop on how to better incorporate assists and adjustments into your classes 🧘
Most yoga students love hands-on assists and adjustments. At our studio we offer consent cards, which people take if they would like us to give them physical support in their practise. 95% take a card 📈 it seems people are hungry for contact and guidance through touch.
But how many of us teachers and trainee teachers are really confident about physically assisting students? 🤔 many will have qualified since Covid when physical touch wasn’t an option and now may have lost confidence as to how to bring hands on assists back into their regular classes.
This workshop will teach you some very simple and safe hands-on assists for the more common postures. We won’t be teaching you how to push anyone into a posture, rather how to gently encourage a student to find their own way into a freer and lighter practise.
are not about correcting ❌ but enlivening the experience of posture and helping students bring awareness to their bodies, hearts and minds ✅☺️
The workshop will explore the key principles of embodied touch, absolute consent, movement patterns of postures and appropriate assists for different bodies. Led by our founder and co-owner of the Stables, Sophie Carr: a senior teacher with 30 years experience & a special interest in embodiment, personal and inter-personal inquiry and the mind-body connection 😌
