CAYB Intensive Yoga Training: Arm Balances & Inversions

First things first, what is this training?

This is a focused, anatomy-driven weekend intensive training dedicated to arm balances, advanced postures, and inversions.

Together, we’ll break down advanced postures into clear, progressive components, learning how strength is built, where students typically get stuck, and how to properly train the body to be ready for more advanced skills. We’ll explore intelligent preparation, drills to warm up the body, common compensation, and how to scale these poses for different bodies and ability levels.

This training emphasizes:

· Practical drills and progressions

· Strength-based approaches over flexibility shortcuts

· Clear, repeatable cueing

· Smart sequencing that prepares the body without burnout

You’ll leave with tools you can immediately apply, whether you’re teaching weekly classes, workshops, or refining your own practice.

Why is focused training so important?

Arm balances and inversions place high demands on the shoulders, wrists, core, and nervous system. Without proper preparation and understanding, these poses are where uncertainty, fear, and injury tend to show up.

General yoga training often doesn't spend enough time here. As a result:

· Teachers guess instead of guide

· Students rely on momentum instead of strength

· Fear replaces curiosity

· Injuries happen quietly and unnecessarily

This training fills that gap.

By understanding the why behind these postures, how strength is developed, how load is managed, and how bodies differ, you gain the ability to teach with clarity and confidence. That confidence translates directly into safer classes, stronger students, and a more grounded teaching presence.

Whether you're a teacher, a student, or a fitness practitioner, you'll walk away with:

· A clearer understanding of how arm balances and inversions actually work

· Practical progressions you can teach confidently

· Stronger cueing and sequencing skills

· Tools to reduce uncertainty and increase confidence
