About:
Going upside down in a Yoga class is so much fun, but can also be fear inducing. This October, BYC and Stanford are offering a 2.5 hours workshop on headstand (Śirşāsana), learning about the building blocks within an inversion practice. Where in our bodies should we prepare and strengthen? How can breathing help with the practice? We will also be exploring why we go upside down in a practice and the benefits, as well as when it is not a good time to take inversion. Most importantly, what should we do after we have taken the inversion, what are the counter-postures. The promise is everyone who comes will get a taste of going upside down, with or without support. So plenty of fun, experimenting and sharing in this coming workshop.
The workshop is open to people of all asana experience. However might not be suitable for people with any history of serious injury (particularly in the shoulders, neck, head and arms), high blood pressure and/or eye problems. Please get in touch via email if you are considering booking and have one of these conditions. We can have a conversation to ensure this workshop is suitable and safe for you
