Pincha Mayurasana.

Focus

This 30-minute tutorial focuses exclusively on developing your Pincha Mayurasana (forearm balance) with clear, methodical instruction. The class begins with a shoulder-opening pose to help unlock the mobility required for the full inversion, followed by preparatory variations that build both strength and control. Techniques for improving shoulder lift, stabilising the pose, and avoiding lower back compression are emphasised throughout. The class also explores how to use props effectively and addresses common challenges that arise in the learning process. Ideal for students looking to deepen their understanding of this dynamic inversion, the sequence offers practical tools to refine and strengthen your Pincha Mayurasana practice.
