Focus

Boost your inversions with this focused class dedicated to refining and deepening key inversions. This sequence explores the classical postures of Adho Mukha Vrksasana (Handstand), Pincha Mayurasana (Forearm Balance), Sirsasana (Headstand), and Sarvangasana (Shoulderstand). Explore strengthening preparatory variations, supported adaptations, therapeutic shoulder-opening alternatives, and free-balancing techniques to build confidence and stability. The sequence includes a detailed progression in Sirsasana and Pincha Mayurasana, featuring shoulder-opening and neck-supporting variations, and an in-depth exploration of Niralamba Sarvangasana with leg variations. These techniques not only deepen your understanding of inversions but also help recalibrate energy levels, support venous and lymphatic drainage, cultivate core strength, and bring mental clarity.
