CPD Masterclass: Making classes accessible - access now
Post graduate masterclass with Noelene Francis
Online—or in your time
$77 for DPN members; $110 for non-DPN members
Special Masterclass series for Dru graduates! Recorded in March 2023.
Join Noelene to explore the whole concept of accessible yoga and meditation classes - whether we are catering to older people, or people with physical limitations, or disadvantage.
As you know Dru Yoga's foundation is therapeutic and we learn many modifications in our training. For this reason in our experience Dru also one of the safest forms of yoga out there, especially for the increasing cohort of people who are taking up yoga in their older years.
In this workshop, we'll explore the key principles of how to modify practices to cater for people of different ages and abilities or limitations.
We'll also cover considerations for:
- teaching a class of mixed abilities or goals for their yoga
- teaching a group that includes people of several different life stages
- the language of inclusion
- reaching out to those who may be excluded.
The masterclass will
- Add to what you have learned in your teacher training for both yoga and meditation, and
- Deepen your understanding of modification, and what you can achieve in your own practice.
Suitable for Dru Yoga and Dru Meditation graduates. You will accrue 2 Continuing Professional Development points for viewing this masterclass.

The workshop was very friendly and welcoming. Good combination of gentle flows and more challenging movements. I really enjoyed it - learnt some new movements and enjoyed the sequences.
The course has helped me to integrate my practice into daily life - it has helped me to feel more relaxed about my experiences. I am able to now take my yoga off the mat by developing awareness on physical, pranic, emotional/motivational and knowings. I now feel I'm piecing together a toolkit to use in daily life; be it simply being able to witness something or in being able to do something to shift it.
As a yoga teacher I have been able to guide individual students on a one to one basis to help them remove some quite deep rooted blocks!
Dru Meditation enables you to bring your practice to the next level, leaves you feeling light and gives you a way forward.
