The Art of Assists

December 14th 2-5PM

Shala Members $65 / Non-members $75

The Art of Assists is both a learned and intuitive practice. At it's best, it deepens the connection between teacher and student, enhancing both safety and embodiment so that the psychical currents of energy (prana) can optimally flow. Through skillful touch, alignment cues, and energetic awareness, assists help practitioners explore greater balance, openness, and stability in their postures. Rooted in compassion and consent, this practice goes beyond physical adjustment—it becomes a dialogue of trust and presence, guiding students toward a more integrated and awakened experience of their own bodies and breath.

This workshop is for current yoga teachers looking to refine their hands-on work and cultivate a deeper sensitivity to their own intuition for more safe, helpful and effective manual adjustments.
