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 develop 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 the guidance of Joseph and Edgar, you will explore both the technical and energetic aspects of hands-on adjustments, developing the skills to approach each student with awareness, sensitivity, and confidence.
