Hands on adjustment is an Art and a important part of the Ashtanga Yoga teachings, it is a skill that is cultivate with time and experience.

During this workshop I will share with you what I have learned in how to assist students during the past 20 years teaching different practitioners around the globe.

Teaching is an extension of our practice so while we are adjusting we are also practising Asana, alignment, focus and breathing have to always be present.
