In this short instructional video, the yoga instructor demonstrates how to assist a student deeper into Paschimottanasana (a forward‑folding pose) by positioning the hands wide behind the student, placing thumbs on the back and fingertips spread wide, and coordinating breath. The demonstration is framed as a teaser for the instructor’s new online course, “Adjustments and Assists,” which promises to teach teachers how to help students achieve deeper postures. The video ends with a call‑to‑action encouraging viewers to follow the channel for future videos.

In Paschimottanasana, intense Western stretch, we are lifting up and folding forward. So when you're adjusting in this, you're going to bring your hands nice and wide. You're going to come behind your student and you're going to bring your thumbs onto their back. Fingertips are wide. Inhale. Exhale. How to help your students get deeper into postures with my brand new online course Adjustments and Assists. Light up the follow button so I see you in the next video.
