Summary: In this very special episode we ask the question - Are hands-on assists in yoga ok? We decided that this subject was just too big for one guest, or even one episode, so we have a whole range of speakers and we have divided the show up into two parts. In part one, we cover the different types of hands-on assists and some of their benefits, we learn some of the history of hands-on assists, we speak about the importance of consent, and we raise the issue of safety when performing adjustments. We have some incredible guests this episode - including Leigh Blashki, Matthew Remski, Jesal Parikh, Jivana Heyman, Claire Cunneen, Dominique Salerno and Gina Macauley While creating this episode we gathered over 4 hours of audio, which we are making available on our Patreon page for free!
