YTT – Technique & Adjustment Course Starting March 14th (3 weekends)

YTT Technique & Adjustment Workshops (Stavanger) | The Yoga Nest
Build confidence in hands-on adjustments, alignment, and teaching technique through 6 progressive weekend workshops. Join one module or the full Yoga Alliance–accredited series.

Touch that teaches. Presence that transforms.

A progressive series of 3 weekends (6 workshop days) where you get to feel alignment, understand what you see, and practice hands-on adjustments with clarity and care.

Whether you’re already teaching, preparing to teach, or simply curious about how skillfully deepen your practice, this is a space where your confidence can grow, one adjustment at a time.

Join a full weekend, or take the full series as part of our Yoga Alliance–accredited Teacher Training / Continuing Education pathway.

What you’ll explore

This is hands-on, skill-focused training and learning will land in your hands, not only in your head.

You’ll practice

  • Effective, supportive adjustments that respect bodies and boundaries
  • Safe alignment techniques you can apply across different bodies
  • Anatomy + biomechanics made practical (so your teaching becomes clearer)
  • Teaching methodology that helps you cue, observe, and assist with confidence

And just as importantly: the subtle skill of knowing when not to adjust, when holding space is the most powerful choice.

Who can join

If you’ve ever thought “I wish I knew exactly what to do with my hands” you’ll feel at home here.

This series welcomes:

  • Yoga practitioners who want to enhance technique and embodiment
  • Aspiring teachers who want a strong foundation before stepping forward
  • Certified teachers who want more confidence, clarity, and options in assists
  • 200h / 300h Teacher Training students (these weekends are included as part of the program)

Workshop Series Overview (3 weekends / 6 workshop days)

Each weekend builds your skills through hands-on repetition, feedback, and real teaching practice, then the next weekend takes you deeper. Across the series, you’ll explore four core themes:

  • Foundation & Stability — understanding balance, alignment, and what to observe before you touch
  • Deepening Adjustments — techniques that support flexibility and safe assists
  • Energy & Breath Connection — using touch to refine breath awareness and presence
  • Building Confidence as a Teacher — hands-on practice in a teaching environment, so you can apply what you learn

How the series is structured

Across these workshop weekends, you’ll work through the full Primary Series, asana by asana and your hands learn what your eyes see.

Module 1 — Sun Salutations and Standing Sequence

You’ll refine Sun salutations and the standing asanas: foundations, balance, transitions, and how to assist with stability and clarity.

Module 2 — Up to Half Primary

You’ll continue through the sequence from where the standing postures end up to Half Primary, building confidence in assists, alignment choices, and teaching cues.

Module 3 — Full Primary + Closing Sequence

You’ll complete the work through the remainder of Primary Series, including the closing sequence—with special attention on safe depth, breath, and consistency.
