Beyond the Shape: Teaching Asana with Props, Progressions & Possibility with Ashley Simonis
modern methods for making asana more accessible and empowering for every body
modern methods for making asana more accessible and empowering for every body
This workshop is designed for yoga teachers who want to make their classes more accessible, inclusive, and responsive to the diverse bodies and experiences in the room.
Together we will explore how to thoughtfully adapt without diminishing the integrity of the practice. We will examine alignment through a more expansive lens, explore intelligent and creative use of props, and refine the language and cues that can either open doors or unintentionally create barriers.
Join us to expand your capacity as a teacher. You’ll leave with tangible tools, adaptable sequencing strategies, and a deeper ability to create spaces where students feel supported, capable, and worthy, exactly as they are.

About Ashley Simonis, founder of hOMe Yoga
Ashley is a dedicated student and practitioner of yoga first and foremost. This fuels her passion for teaching. Her practice began in 2011 at a carpeted heated studio in St. Louis, MO. (Eeek!) Ashley completed her 200 hour teacher training in 2016 with BlueBird and Southtown Yoga in St. Louis, MO where she was born, raised and currently resides and her 300 hour training in 2020 with Yoga Oasis in Tucson, AZ. She teaches classes, workshops, and teacher trainings both locally and nationally with a heavy emphasis on accessibility. Ashley studies and works closely with her teacher Darren Rhodes, founder of yogahour®.
Her gusto for these practices (and life in general) is undeniable and you’ll see that in her offerings. Ashley's mission is to get these practices off the mat (or cushion) and into the world. There's something really profound that happens when a person can bring their practice into their day to day lives.
