About
This dynamic class is designed to simultaneously build upper body strength and enhance hamstring flexibility, offering a balanced approach that targets two key areas of practice. You’ll work through preparatory variations of Handstand (Adho Mukha Vrksasana) and Headstand (Sirsasana) to develop strength in your wrists, arms, and shoulders, setting the foundation for more advanced inversions. To complement this, we’ll explore hamstring-lengthening poses such as Parsvottanasana (Pyramid Pose) and Virabhadrasana III (Warrior III), deepening your flexibility and improving stability. Connecting these two aspects, we’ll incorporate variations of Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana) to reinforce the shared actions and create a cohesive flow. Ideal for intermediate students, this class is a challenging yet rewarding way to advance your practice, offering a strong boost to both your inversions and standing pose techniques.
