It’s time to turn your classes into unforgettable, multi-layered experiences that support, ground and transform your students' practice so they keep coming back, rave about your teaching and feel held every step of the way.
You’re already showing up and you know you’re meant for more…
You’re dedicated to your students. You’re nailing your sequences, refined your cues and started to build a loyal class base. You're already teaching regularly and pouring your heart into what you do.
You know you’re meant to support your students in a deeper way. You’re showing up by moving through the room with seeing who’s in front of you, making eye contact, pausing to observe how your students are breathing and moving.
You’re tuning in, not just cueing and you’re weaving in yogic themes that invite reflection and connection beyond the posture.
But when it comes to hands-on assists? You freeze. You hesitate. You second-guess what you’re doing every time.
Despite all the effort you’re putting in, your students are still not dropping in as deeply as you know they could. AND your classes, while good, don’t stand out in the way you know they could if you just had the right tools.
The reason this is happening is…
👉🏻 You’re sticking to verbal cues or over demoing to get your point across, which is exactly why as much as you try with some students, you are just missing the mark. You’re feeling surface level in your communication which is stopping you from supporting your students on a deeper level.
👉🏻 You’re offering basic assists technique without feedback or frameworks, which is exactly why you're unsure how to confidently support different bodies and injuries.
👉🏻 You’re avoiding touch altogether, thinking it’s safer but that’s why you’re not creating those deeper, lasting impressions that keep students progressing in their practice and coming back.
What you’re missing?
👀 A clear, repeatable system to offer support to every level and every person that walks into your class room, intuitively and safely
👀 The confidence that only comes with real-time practice, feedback and embodiment
👀 An energetic awareness to meet each student in ‘conversation’ in a multi layered and skilled way instead of surface level delivery
"I received so much more than I expected from this training. It was thoughtfully designed and packed with valuable, easy-to-understand information. Amy's teaching was not only energetic but also deeply rooted in experience. What stood out most for me was the interactive and practical nature of the sessions. After the weekend, I feel more confident and ready to support my community with hands-on assists."
- Nina Panesar-Woods
THE GOOD NEWS? When you learn how to assist in a way that supports your students not just physically but in a multi layered way with skill and intention everything changes.
With just a few simple frameworks and focused practice, we can take your classes from "technically solid" to deeply embodied experiences your students remember and come back for.
When you have the assist frameworks I teach in The Art of Assists for Yoga Teachers, that's when:
🖐️ Your students feel truly seen, safe and supported so instead of just showing up for a workout, they arrive ready to grow. They trust your guidance and leave class feeling like they’ve been met on every level physically, emotionally and energetically. They come back not just because it feels good, but because they’re progressing and evolving every time they practice with you.
🖐️ Your confidence skyrockets and your students feel it in every moment. They trust you more, engage more deeply and keep showing up because they know they’re being guided by someone who truly sees them and has the skills and knowledge to support them on a deeper level.
Your teaching becomes the one they remember, the class they rearrange their week for, recommend to friends and return to week after week because it just feels different.
"My biggest takeaway from the training was the importance of consistent practice. It requires a lot of energy, but the results are absolutely worth it, as it can truly enhance someone’s experience. The program material was fantastic, practical and hands-on, which was exactly what I needed. My main concern was building confidence in offering hands-on assists, and the ample practice over the weekend significantly boosted my confidence. I also appreciated the opportunity to work with different body types. If I had to sum up the training in one word, it would be 'Inspiring', it has motivated me to bring something new to my teaching and to start teaching with confidence after recently completing my YTT."

Introducing…
The Art of Assists For Yoga Teachers
20HR Yoga Teacher Training
In The Art of Assists for Yoga Teachers, I will guide you through a 2 day practical journey so you can immediately & confidently integrate these techniques into your teaching to benefit both you & your students.
This is where you will get on-the-ground practice with a clear, an embodied framework and expert feedback and this is the most effective way to stop second guessing assists, build confidence in every class, and create the kind of safe, unforgettable experiences that grow student loyalty, openness teaching opportunities, and elevate your career as a yoga teacher.
This is a practical and powerful hands-on training to:
👉 Teach you how to deliver intuitive, supportive assists that go beyond alignment so you can help any student who walks through the door, tailoring your support to their unique needs and building lasting trust in every interaction.
👉 Practically teach you how to use skilful touch and timing to create classes that feel personal and unforgettable so your students leave feeling seen and supported and return week after week because your classes offer something deeper.
👉 Build and strengthen your teaching and assists toolkit with clear, embodied frameworks so you can walk into every class feeling confident, prepared and ready to offer the kind of support that helps your students progress on every level.
Throughout this comprehensive weekend training, we'll delve into the core aspects of hands-on assists. I’ll teach you how to…
🖐️ Practice and refine assists technique for sun salutations, standing postures, twists, backbends, inversions and Savasana so you can offer meaningful, real-time support through out the whole practice that helps students feel more stable, aligned and present in their bodies.
🖐️ Adapt to different bodies and needs using my C.A.R.E method so you can confidently assist students of all levels and abilities, and make every individual feel seen, safe and held no matter who shows up to your class.
🖐️ Work with breath, biomechanics and energetics so your assists feel purposeful, intuitive and intelligent every time, helping your students feel fully supported, to settle their nervous system and experience their practice in a way that they will feel beyond the time they have with you in the classroom so they are able to quickly progress their practice.
All with real-time feedback, so you leave knowing exactly how to bring this into your classes straight away with the confidence to step off your mat and the skills to elevate every class you teach.
WHAT MAKES THIS TRAINING DIFFERENT?
What’s so unique about this training is that I don’t just teach you “how to assist.” This is a transformational weekend where you will…
👌 Learn a complete framework for hands-on assists
Most trainings will just teach you generic techniques to apply. I teach a framework including my 4-step application method, the CARE method, and a kosha-based lens so instead of just learning basic technique you have a proven method to easily offer assists that you can tailor to who ever walks into your classroom. Assists that go beyond just physical alignment, supporting your students on every level physical, energetic, mental and beyond.
👌 Get coached through hands-on practice with feedback in real time
So you can leave with grounded confidence, knowing exactly how your assists land and how to refine them to suit each student’s unique body and experience. You will receive feedback from myself and also from you fellow teachers.
👌 Experience the assists yourself
So you can understand the power of safe, intentional touch from the inside out helping you offer assists that feel natural, supportive and deeply impactful for your students. In this way you will be able to embody what you delivering.
This means that you will stop second-guessing and start teaching with the kind of clarity, confidence and depth that gets felt in the room, knowing exactly how and when to assist. And you’re able to respond intuitively to what your students need and building a reputation as the teacher who helps people feel at home in their body and connect to something deeper every time they practice with you.
This training isn't just watching or listening to learn. It's a hands-on journey. You'll practiCe assists on fellow teachers, receive constructive feedback, and experience the assists first hand in your own body which is as important as giving them so you are able to intuitively deliver.
teachers results & feedback…
“My biggest surprise of the training was the connections I made with all the other teachers. I came away from the course feeling so blessed to be part of such a kind and supportive community. My favourite part of the training was the energy management section which was so great and such a great addition to the material and I really enjoyed it. It really goes hand in hand with the hands on assists and I feel like I have left the course feeling well-rounded as a teacher.”
– Alice Bowen
“Amy created such a comfortable, open environment in which I felt really supported and encouraged to learn and try things out. I was surprised that I felt confident to do them by the end, even though it was a relatively short course and I hadn't done them before. I thought the course was brilliant. It was a good amount of time, the content was really comprehensive and you created a supportive atmosphere for learning”
– Naomi Robertson
“By the end of the weekend I felt confident with most adjustments. It was brilliant that we learnt about the importance of confidence when adjusting.. also the importance of grounding ourselves first and how not to injure myself when adjusting others regularly. I loved practicing adjusting and being adjusted!”
– Lyndsay Kenwright
"My biggest takeaways from the course were the confidence to start incorporating assists immediately and the valuable insights on energy management. Amy’s energy and warmth made the experience truly special. Her passion for teaching was incredible, and she created a secure space where I felt completely at ease. The course was thoughtfully executed, and I’m grateful to have found Amy just in time. The camaraderie with the other teachers was an added bonus—we laughed, learned, and connected beautifully. I gained so much more than I expected. Amy, you are amazing!"

MASTERING ASSISTS IN THIS WAY is how I booked out my calendar with dream private clients many of whom stayed with me for 7+ years.
It’s also how I’ve created classes and retreats that students return to again and again, because they didn’t just practice yoga, they felt it in their bodies, in their breath and in the support I offer through touch.
This is a method I have developed and refined, teaching assists to teachers for over 7+ years inside my signature courses and mentorships, guiding over 100 yoga teachers to assist with more clarity, confidence and purpose.
I’ve seen firsthand how this changes not just their teaching but their business, their student retention and their ability to create real transformation in the room.
Why am I the right person to help you feel confident with assists?
Hey, I’m Amy 👋 a senior yoga teacher, mentor and teacher trainer who’s been teaching for over a decade and yes, I’ve been exactly where you are now.
When I first started teaching, I used to avoid assists altogether. I was terrified of getting them wrong, of hurting someone or of looking like I didn’t know what I was doing. I second-guessed myself constantly, and it felt easier just to not touch at all.
I had felt the power of assists when practicing myself so was determined to learn how to bring them in to my teaching to support my students in this deeper way.
So I threw myself into learning and went on to complete a Jivamukti Yoga 300HR, followed by a year-long 500HR apprenticeship with Jivamukti London, where a massive part of the methods focus was on hands on assists. That’s where things began to shift. I started to see how powerful assists could be when they’re offered in a way that was purposeful, with confidence and in a way that was tailored to every student.
Since then, I’ve refined my own unique approach through running my specialist assist trainings over the past 7+ years. I’ve now taught over 100 teachers inside these trainings, mentored another 100+ teachers through my coaching containers, and taught assists on over 20, 200HR teacher trainings over the last 8 years.
For me, assists has become one of the most transformative tools in my career.
✨ They’re how I built a sold-out private client list in London who stayed with me for over 7 years.
✨ They’re how I create multi-layered retreats and classes that students come back to again and again.
✨ They’re a big part of how I moved from lacking confidence as a new teacher, to a confident, in-demand professional.
So when I say that learning to assist can change your teaching, your business, your student retention and your ability to create real transformation in the room, I mean it. I’ve lived it, I’ve taught it, and I’ve witnessed it again and again through the teachers I’ve trained.
And I know it’s possible for you too.
Because assists aren’t just about moving bodies. They’re about guiding your students into a deeper experience of their practice, helping them feel seen, supported, and truly held. Assists become another language of communication, one that often brings students back into their bodies more quickly and profoundly than words alone ever could.
This is the magic I want to help you step into.
So you can keep relying on what you learnt in your 200HR, copying your teachers, second-guessing yourself, and feeling like your classes are “just okay.”
Or… you can bring your teaching to a new level of excellence.
🙌 You can be seen as a professional.
🙌 You can create classes that students rave about the kind they come back to week after week.
🙌 You can grow a community of loyal students who see you as their teacher.
🙌 You can become the go-to teacher in your area, building not just confidence in the classroom but a thriving, successful yoga career.
The choice is yours…
The truth? Confident, purposeful assists are one of the fastest ways to elevate your teaching and this training gives you the exact framework, practical experience and professional guidance to make it happen.
If you're ready to walk into your classes knowing exactly how to support every student with clarity and confidence with a method that helps you read the room, meet your students where they are, and respond in real time with assists that support not just their alignment, but their whole experience?
✨ THIS IS YOUR NEXT TEACHING EVOLUTION ✨
Let’s get your hands (and your heart) in the game.
Secure your spot today and learn how to confidently implement hands-on assists into your teaching, in just one transformational weekend.
