Specialised: Upside Down

This specialised class focuses on the practice of inversions. Strengthening and stabilising postures are practised as a way to prepare the body for these poses and build its internal support. The class emphasises headstand, handstand, forearm balance and shoulderstand, as well as variations of these poses. Some pranayama, chanting and meditation may be included. Suitable for intermediate yoga practitioners with a consistent practice who are comfortable being upside down. This class builds on the necessary body stability and awareness acquired in Foundation Level classes to take on inversion poses and their variations.

This Specialised class focuses on building a solid foundation for inversions. It begins with a specific warm-up, then proceeds with core and upper body strengthening. A variety of inversions will be practised with detailed instructions as well as demonstrations and modifications to allow for different levels of practitioners. Suitable for students with some yoga experience looking to improve their inversion practice. Not suitable for total beginners.
