Advanced Training
Assisting + Adjusting Practicum
with Akasha Searcey
December 13, 2025 — $350
Saturday: 9:00 AM – 6:00 PM
Location: Lift Yoga Johns Creek
Students will receive roughly 6 hours of self-paced learning after the in-person session on Saturday. To complete the training, a 2-hour Zoom session will be scheduled (date/time TBD dependent on attendee availability) to provide a review of material and integration of the content.
Assisting students in yoga postures can be transformational and literally life changing. The key is to understand exactly what aspect to assist as well as making adjustments based on core concepts of stability, ability and integration. As teachers, it is of the utmost importance to know when and when not to assist a student in a way that creates space for energy to flow into new spaces of mind, body and heart.
