DMY Teacher’s Assistant Program (TAP)
Immerse yourself in this intensive 3 day training focused to teach you the art of assisting!
Have you ever had an in-class teacher help you deepen your practice and free you in your postures in ways you never knew were possible? Are you aspiring to become a teacher and don’t know where to start? This is your answer!
This hands on training will spark your true understanding of Asana and will further your yoga experience beyond your expectations! Learn more about your body, learn about joints, how they rotate properly, the spine and it’s interaction with your hips and pelvis. You will experience principles of alignment with a deepened awareness which will allow you to fully understand the Asanas you practice.
Upon completion, you will gain:
- Enhanced techniques for working one on one with students/clients
- Confidence and skill to assist independently of teaching
- A deeper understanding of your personal yoga practice
