Mindful Assists


Friday, January 17, 5 - 9pm and Saturday, January 18, 1 - 9pm

$375 with Gillian St. Clair

In this training you’ll learn how to assist with skill and confidence but most importantly respect. You’ll learn how to combine verbal & physical assists to empower and educate your students in trauma-informed ways. Learn how to modify your approach for different levels of practitioners as well as various body types and physical needs. Deepen your knowledge of alignment and anatomy to safely assist and to share how each student can potentially find more stability, space, strength and joint health. 

Topics may include:

  • Safety and Guidelines

  • Demoing & self-assists 

  • Why adjust in the first place?

  • What makes a good adjustment?

  • Uncover your own bias.

  • Assisting in the flow. 

  • And many more!

You’ll learn how to assist:

  • Sun Salutations

  • Standing and balancing shapes

  • Twists

  • Seated and standing forward folds

  • Lateral bending

  • Back bends

  • Inversions

  • Savasana 

Attendees will receive 12 Yoga Alliance CEUs.

This workshop is included in the Steadfast Yoga School’s 300HR program.
