The Power of Assists: Adjustments, Energetics, and Alignment of Yoga Asanas

Live at Bodhi Salt

Two Weekends: November 15-17 & 22-24

There is language that needs to be learned when teaching alignment. This language is both spoken and unspoken, it is both with touch and without. As a teacher you are never simply adjusting a posture, you are assisting a person. People with their own stories, attachments, emotions, and pasts. It is essential to approach each student with great care and awareness. This intensive training fully explores the development of that awareness. 

Join Matthew Cohen as he teaches how to trust your inner compass so that you can intuitively care for each individual student. You will learn how to read body language, even when the student themselves may not be in touch with what their own body is saying. 

We will also explore various categories of poses to understand greater meaning within each posture. As we turn into a twist it can act not only for detoxification, but as a look into our pasts. As we practice inversions, we alter not only our physical perspective, but maybe learn to see other aspects of life through a different lens. As we find ourselves in a balanced pose, may we explore the many balances and dances that come with life. 

This intensive is meant to help guide, prepare, and grow not only your personal practice but teach you how to gracefully communicate with your students to meet their needs as they communicate with you on the mat.
