Consent, Science, and Student Empowerment

In this 3-hour immersive workshop, we’ll take a modern, mindful approach to hands-on assisting—one that values consent, science, and student empowerment over outdated, hierarchical methods. You’ll learn to offer support through touch that is: * Anatomically informed * Respectful of boundaries * Empowering, not correcting * Grounded in kinesthetic intelligence and proprioception We’ll explore the evolution of assisting from the traditional guru-student model to a more collaborative, trauma-aware, and choice-driven method. This includes current best practices around: * Asking for explicit permission to touch * Honoring student agency and autonomy * Enhancing nervous system regulation through touch * Supporting rehabilitative movement through informed assists Whether you’re a yoga teacher, movement guide, or simply curious about the role of touch in learning and healing—this workshop will leave you with new insights and hands-on tools you can apply immediately. Expect a mix of lecture, demonstration, and plenty of guided practice.
