Upside Down, Fully Supported: Accessible Inversions for Everybody with Sally Gill

Friday April 17 • 7:00 - 8:30pm • $35

Inversions are often seen as some of the most intimidating postures in yoga; but they don’t have to be. When approached with care, proper support, and a calm environment, going upside down can become one of the most relaxing and therapeutic experiences in a yoga practice.
Join Sally Gill, a Yoga Practitioner of over 30 years, to explore accessible, supported inversions designed to help you experience the benefits of turning your perspective upside down without strain or fear. Using props, the wall, and mindful guidance, we will explore gentle inversion variations that prioritize safety, nervous system regulation, and deep support for the body.
Rather than pushing into difficult poses, this session focuses on how support creates possibility. You’ll discover how bolsters, blocks, blankets, and walls can transform inversions into restorative, nourishing shapes that allow the body to soften while the mind settles.
Expect to:
In this supportive and in-depth workshop, you will:
Learn safe and accessible approaches to inversions.
Use props and wall support to create stability and comfort.
Experience the calming, therapeutic effects of gentle inversions.
Build confidence and resilience in a supportive environment.
Workshop Details:
Although inversions can initially feel intimidating, practicing them in a safe, supportive environment helps us gradually build trust and resilience. As we learn to approach the unfamiliar with curiosity and support, these postures can become powerful tools for cultivating confidence, balance, and a new perspective; both on and off the mat.
This workshop is welcoming to all levels, including those who have been curious about inversions but unsure where to begin.
Come explore how sometimes the most grounding place to be… is a little upside down.
Cancellation Policy: As a courtesy to our teachers who plan their workshops thoughtfully, workshops are non-refundable if less than 24 hours' notice of cancellation is given. Thank you.
