By the end of this video, you will know the most useful and sensitive questions to ask a student who is sharing their cancer diagnosis with you and the questions to ask yourself in assessing whether to teach.

With diagnosis rates of cancer reaching 1 in 2 people in the UK, the chances are high that you will have a student in your class affected. This course gives you the questions you need to ask to hold that conversation sensitively and with compassion, and to begin evaluating whether or how you can work with this student.

Hello, I’m Jenni Stone, a senior yoga teacher and professional reflexologist. I have over 20 years experience working with people who have cancer, first as a reflexologist and then as a yoga teacher. I have supported people with cancer in various settings including a hospice, cancer charities, in private clinics, in people’s homes and more recently, online too. Currently, I am the resident yoga teacher for Maggie’s Royal Free where I have been for 8 years and continue to develop the yoga programme there.
