We are very fortunate that Ilias is coming to Merimbula with his Forrest Yoga Hands-On Assists Teacher Training. Our beloved yoga students love to know they are cared for, seen and included. Giving personal attention with skilled hands-on assistance that is safe and beneficial is deeply appreciated.

'Ana Forrest (Creatrix of Forrest Yoga) may appear fierce, but you’ll be deeply moved by how tender, caring and intuitive her Assists are. Having lived in Sydney for my first 11 years of teaching yoga, I had the fortune to access a lot of extra training. This included Hands-On Assisting Modules and I can confidently state that Forrest Yoga’s Hands on Assisting Training stands out as the Best' ~- Ingrid Gravestein, The Yoga Humm.

This Teacher Training Course is designed for Yoga Teachers of any level of experience or style and is a great opportunity to up-skill. It is also open for curious students who perhaps aspire to become teachers in the future and would like a taster. Instructors of other disciplines, such as Massage Therapists and Fitness Trainers, are most welcome to join.

In this course you will learn:

To touch your students in a compassionate, effective and safe way for long-lasting and life-changing results.
To offer hands-on assists whilst simultaneously looking after your own body and energy to avoid burn out and/or injuries.
Basic anatomic principles to use for your assists to improve your students posture and keep them safe.
To offer targeted assists for the most commonly occurring injuries: back, hip/knee, shoulder and neck pain
How to see and feel energy (empathise) to increase the effectiveness of your adjustments
To use kinaesthetic, visual and audio ways of assisting whenever necessary as each human has different natural tendencies to receive information.

There will also be time for Q & A where you can ask your questions. Come up with plenty!
