Next Level Hands on Teaching: Assisting Workshop

Teachers always ask, "how do I integrate hands-on assists into my teaching?" It is a growing edge for teachers - leading a class while using the tool of hands-on assists to support the students. There are two ways to approach this, first your words and actions must be aligned; second there are times when your hands are your words.

In this workshop, you will learn how to support a student's body with upleveled hands-on assists, to align your verbal cues with assists and to teach without words.  Through real-time application, you will gain confidence in your teaching to connect your verbal cues with hands-on assists.  

You will gain insight on the following:

• Learn what assisting is and what it is not.
  
• Body Reading - Gain insight on how to identify alignment imbalances
• Overview of the defining target areas of postures
• Foundations of the 6 Myofascial Groups of the body
