About
This class offers a comprehensive refresher on the foundations of Sirsasana (headstand), guiding you through essential preparatory poses that will gradually build the strength and stability needed for this key inversion. Iyengar Yoga emphasises careful progression, ensuring that you develop the necessary shoulder, core, and neck strength to safely support your body while upside down. Before attempting a full headstand, it’s crucial to learn alignment techniques that protect the neck from strain and injury. In addition to preparing you for Sirsasana, this class is also highly effective for improving upper body strength, with poses that target the arms, shoulders, and core. Whether you’re working towards a full headstand or simply looking to strengthen your upper body, this session offers a range of poses and modifications to support a safe and confident approach, allowing you to advance at your own pace.
