THE ART OF GUIDING ASANA
A One Day Intensive for Yoga Teachers
APRIL 25TH 2026 : 10A - 3P
CANDLER, NC
Refine your presence.
Sharpen your eye.
Elevate your voice.
This one day intensive is for teachers who love yoga and want to guide it better.
Not by adding more poses.
Not by memorizing more cues.
But by refining how they see, speak, and lead.
If you’ve completed your 200 hour training and feel that quiet nudge to grow deeper into your craft, this space was built for you.
The way you guide matters.
Workshop Structure
Total Time: 5 Hours
• 4 hours of professional instruction and applied practice
• 1 hour closing class led by Heather Newman
• 5 hours of Yoga Alliance YACEP continuing education credit
The instructional portion sharpens your teaching intelligence.
The closing class allows you to experience the principles embodied in real time.
You will not just understand the work.
You will feel it.
Why This Exists
Many teachers leave their foundational training with information.
Few leave with refinement.
The Art of Guiding Asana bridges that gap.
This is not about learning more postures.
It is about strengthening how you guide.
In one focused day, we deepen three essential pillars of professional teaching:
• Who you are as a guide
• How you see and assess bodies
• How you communicate with clarity and authority
These are skills that elevate a teacher for a lifetime.
What You Will Gain
You will leave with:
• A clearer understanding of your leadership presence
• A refined alignment lens that simplifies your cueing
• Stronger verbal delivery that builds student trust
• Practical tools you can apply immediately
• Greater confidence without ego
• Language that supports inclusivity and safety
This is about sharpening your foundation so everything you teach from here forward becomes stronger.
What Makes This Different
This is not passive learning.
You will:
• Practice in real time
• Refine your delivery
• Explore responsive teaching
• Develop sharper observation skills
• Receive thoughtful professional feedback
You will not just gather concepts.
You will embody them.
