Niralamba Sarvangasana – Weekly Advanced Class 392

This class explores Niralamba Sarvangasana, a key Iyengar Yoga inversion that offers a supported alternative to the classical shoulderstand. Ideal for home practice, it provides an excellent way to deepen your understanding of Salamba Sarvangasana while offering a restorative and therapeutic approach. The class presents two widely used methods for practicing Niralamba Sarvangasana, each broken down with detailed prop setups and clear, step-by-step guidance. The first variation uses a yoga chair to make the pose accessible to those with limited mobility, including practical tips for safely bringing the legs onto the chair and addressing common challenges. The second variation introduces wall support, allowing you to establish balance and refine technique before working without assistance. This class is suitable for a broad range of practitioners and offers valuable insight into the alignment, actions, and benefits of this versatile inversion.
