What participants are saying:
'I'm a former dancer and now a yoga teacher. The concepts and information in Hannah's course are certainly transferable to safety in yoga teaching. Hannah is amazingly clear, articulate and engaging in her approach to sharing information. There was a great balance between theory and practice and she had a real life example to help explain any theoretical question that a participant posed. I definitely plan To take the other modules as well’
- Shari Stein |
'Hannah's bubbly personality, passion for educating others and pure love for anything movement related is the best combination and a huge reason way dance instructors should experience this course. Safe Dance Practice will push you to think in a different way. It explains the why's behind your cueing, in depth anatomy, partner work, alignment assessments and will leave you feeling refreshed and inspired'
