About this Event
Have you ever wished you could easily take a headstand, handstand or arm balance in a yoga class?
Then this all levels workshop is for you.
Whether you have managed to bring these fun and powerful postures into your practice yet or not this class will help you find your way to successful arm balances and inversions.
With a yogic approach to these postures you will be led through a warm up where we will discuss ways to prepare your body. We will discuss the role of arm balances in yoga. You will receive techniques and tips to safely execute and work your way up to arm balances.
We will also spend a healthy time in cooling down the body and learning safe counter poses to bring ourselves safely back to earth.
This will be a strong class with a lot of movement, flexibility and strength work.
That said you do not need to already have your handstand, head stand or other arm balances.
Poses we will visit will be, Head stand (sirsasana), Handstand (adho mukha vrksasana) and 2-3 other hand/arm balances, options include pinchasana (forearm stand) and bakasana (crow pose). If you are joining the class and there is a particular arm balance you would like to explore, please get in touch with plenty of time and I will endeavour to weave it into the class.
I can’t guarantee that you will leave the class easily floating up into any arm balance. But you will learn a lot of tools to aid you in your journey, wherever you are right now.
The investment for this workshop is £25 per person.
As ever a limited number of scholarship places will be available through my pay it forward fund. If finance is a barrier to you joining please get in touch and we can discuss options!
