HANDS ON ASSISTS

​

Course Overview
Ask students what they want more of in their yoga classes and many would say 'hands on assists' or more 'individual attention' from their teacher.  
A skilful posture assist  has the capacity to deepen a students understanding of their own body along with the functional alignment of the asana. However, on the flip side, a poorly executed assist can leave a student feeling more unstable and confused.  
This module explores the art of providing skilful assists that will empower your students to further develop their yoga asana practice.  You will learn the key principles behind providing hands on assistance along with how to identify the students in a group class who would most benefit from a manual assist. Basic massage techniques are also covered in this module to deepen your students relaxation experience. 
Assists are learnt through demonstration and practical application, with support and feedback provided by your trainers.

Key Learning Outcomes
The topics covered will include:
  • Guiding principles for physically assisting students
  • Sharpening your observation skills and prioritising your attention in group classes
  • Practical techniques for assisting your students to achieve optimal alignment in their body
  • Learn and practice assists for sun salutations, standing postures, seated poses, back bends, twists and savasana
  • The art of assisting a one-on-one yoga class
  • Simple massage techniques to deepen relaxation
