Wholeness and Hands On Teaching Skills
In this workshop we will be exploring how the teacher demonstrates the quality of use they wish the student to learn. Because vertebrates work as whole systems, when any muscle goes into action, all other muscles coordinate with and support that movement. We will use these concepts to illuminate how our hands on teaching is an extension of our whole quality of being, and experience how we can effectively communicate an improved standard of use to our students.
