Chelsea Jackson Roberts – Inclusivity Training for Yoga

Chelsea Jackson Roberts – Inclusivity Training for YogaYou’ll finish this six-week online workshop, hosted by education expert and yoga teacher Chelsea Jackson Roberts, PhD, with the skills and tools you need as a teacher to make compassionate and inclusive language choices (instead of singling out men for having tight hips, for example), offer alternative versions of poses (instead of presenting one version as better than others), give appropriate assists (instead of unknowingly triggering someone with a hands-on “adjustment”), reach out to neighboring communities, and expand and diversify your student body. This is a must-have credential for yoga teachers—but it’s also valuable for any student seeking more diversity and acceptance in yoga.Even yoga teachers with the best intentions sometimes inadvertently say things that might harm their students, either physically or mentally. It happens to us all, and more often than not, it is simply because we haven’t been trained how to teach to different and diverse populations. This course is geared toward yoga teachers who want to create an inclusive and compassionate practice environment, where students of all shapes, sizes, races, genders, and abilities feel welcome and supported.Join Chelsea Jackson Roberts, PhD, a yoga teacher and educator based in Atlanta who has extensive experience bringing yoga to new populations, as she offers practices, teaches cueing and languaging workshops, facilitates role playing, helps you reflect on your intentions, provides critical self-care techniques, and interviews experts in the field, including Seane Corn, Teo Drake, Dianne Bondy, and Tyrone Beverly.
