Supporting Techniques

  • Students are allowed to support objects or people based on their age, strength, and level of ability.
  • When supporting people use hips and shoulders.  Do not support people using the neck, head, or lower back.
  • To provide safe support the base must be stable (for example, both feet on the floor, with feet shoulder width apart, and the knees bent).
