Look, Observe & Support.
Hands-on assisting can be a simple and powerful way to support a student. A thoughtful touch can help someone feel more grounded, find direction, create space, or become more aware of their body and movement. It’s not about changing the student or making a pose look ‘better’ – It’s about being present, paying attention, and offering support when it is truly needed.
Touch also asks us to be mindful. It requires awareness, sensitivity, clear communication, and respect for each student's boundaries. In this 20h Hands-On Assists Training, we will explore how to make hands-on assisting feel more natural, confident, and intentional while always respecting the individual in front of you.
