Deepening Your Teaching: Hands-On Assists & Adjust

  • Yoga on Beacon 3063 Beacon Avenue South Seattle, Washington, 98144 United States (map)

Join Meagan Lass of Sugarcane Yoga for an interactive workshop exploring the art and practice of hands-on assists for yoga teachers.

Grounded in Sugarcane Yoga's movement-focused approach, this workshop draws on the importance of understanding how the body moves, building body awareness, and creating greater strength, stability, and ease through intentional movement.

Meagan will guide teachers through the principles of skillful, purposeful touch, exploring how hands-on assists can support alignment, deepen body awareness, and help students better understand their movement patterns. Through demonstration and hands-on practice, we'll explore different assisting techniques, the importance of consent and communication, and how to adapt our approach to honor each student's individual body and needs.

Meagan's approach brings together traditional yoga practice and a modern understanding of functional movement, encouraging teachers to look beyond simply adjusting a pose and instead consider how they can help students move with greater awareness, confidence, and resilience.

Whether you're newer to teaching or looking to refine your existing skills, this workshop offers an opportunity to expand your teaching toolkit, build confidence with hands-on assists, and connect with fellow yoga teachers.

Led by Meagan Lass, founder of Sugarcane Yoga. Open to yoga teachers and yoga teacher trainees.
