Sat: 1.00pm –3.00pm: (session 1)Basic Arm balances - For students who want to gain strength & courage to perform arm balances. -  Demystify arm balancing and give you a path (sequence for strengthening arms and abdominals; opening hips) and sequence toward executing arm balances.  We will look at the subtle mechanics of these difficult asanas while experimenting with new & interesting ways of entering and abiding in them. More advanced students can expect to tweak & tighten their arm balances with sublte cues to refine the postures. 

Sun: 10.00am –12.00pm: (session 2) Vinyassa Master class. All levels

More Advanced Arm balances and sequences to execute handstands.  Intermediate students can expect to build strength & refine technique in preparation for more advanced inversions and balances. (Must have 6 month min yoga experience - not appropriate for beginners)

Arm balances are very much about technique and positioning and less about brute strength. Arm balance is all about

shifting body weight correctly. Learning where to lift and where to press are fundamentals of arm balances that will move you off the floor with ease. We will explore the foundation of arm balancing, the technicalities of leaving the ground on our hands and the playful mindset needed to maintain the balance.
