Focus

This advanced class offers experienced practitioners an opportunity to combine inversions and forward bends in a classically balanced sequence. Featuring asanas such as Sirsasana (Headstand), Niralamba Sarvangasana (Unsupported Shoulderstand), Adho Mukha Vrksasana (Handstand), and Pincha Mayurasana (Forearm Balance), the class develops stability, focus, and strength while promoting circulatory and nervous system health. These inversions are thoughtfully paired with essential forward bends, including Janu Sirsasana (Head-to-Knee Pose), Triang Mukhaikapada Paschimottanasana (Three-Limbed Forward Bend), Upavistha Konasana (Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend), and Paschimottanasana (Seated Forward Bend), to release tension in the spine, calm the mind, and soothe the nervous system. This carefully curated sequence is designed to preserve energy and create balance during the end-of-year period, helping to combat fatigue while maintaining vitality and equanimity.
