Observation, Connection & Intelligent Assisting is a hands-on workshop designed to help yoga teachers move beyond simply seeing poses and begin seeing people.
Learn how to recognize movement patterns, identify compensation strategies, observe stability and effort, and better understand what the body is communicating beneath the surface. Explore how breath, nervous system responses, fear, confidence, and physical organization influence the way students move and learn.
Through discussion, observation exercises, partner work, and practical application, you'll develop the skills to offer assists that are thoughtful, effective, and responsive to the individual in front of you. Rather than applying the same approach to every student, you'll learn how to make intelligent decisions based on what you observe in real time.
This workshop is ideal for yoga teachers, teacher trainees, movement professionals, and dedicated practitioners who want to deepen their understanding of human movement, improve their ability to connect with students, and create a more supportive and transformative class experience.
Whether you are new to assisting or looking to refine your teaching skills, this workshop will help you develop greater confidence, clarity, and presence as a teacher while learning how to support students with purpose, precision, and care.
