Focus

This class offers an in-depth progression from last week’s exploration of yoga inversions, focusing on three fundamental inverted asanas: Adho Mukha Vrksasana (Handstand), Sirsasana (Headstand), and Pincha Mayurasana (Forearm Balance). With a methodical, step-by-step approach, the class breaks down each pose into strengthening preparatory variations and targeted techniques that isolate key actions essential for balance, stability, and alignment. Alongside refining technique for the full expressions of these inversions, the session emphasises building upper body and core strength, improving shoulder mobility, and cultivating the confidence necessary for sustained, controlled inversions. Whether you are looking to deepen your practice, troubleshoot common challenges, or develop greater ease in your inversions, this class provides a structured and supportive framework to boost your practice.
