The Art of Touch

Kysko Academy: 51 av. Blanc 1201 Geneva

Workshop led by Melania McLaughlin
Tactile Cueing is a fundamental skill in movement teaching, too often overlooked or executed hesitantly. Yet placing a hand with intention and precision is one of the most powerful tools to correct alignment, awaken a client’s body awareness, and instantly unlock their progress.
This workshop takes a close look at tactile cueing to transform your hands-on adjustments. After exploring the science of touch and proprioception, you’ll establish a clear framework to define your teaching intention before even placing your hand. Ample time will then be devoted to hands-on practice across a variety of exercises, making your hands a teaching tool as precise and impactful as your words.
What you’ll master:
- Science of Touch & Proprioception: Understand the neuromuscular impact of physical contact on movement perception and postural correction.
- Intention & Teaching Framework: Define a clear and supportive strategy before each adjustment to intervene with accuracy and relevance.
- Practice & Precision of Touch: Train in real conditions across a varied repertoire to develop confident, fluid, and immediately effective touch.
