Let’s start 2015 the right way: Upside down!
Dedicated to the king of asanas, this workshop will take you through many variations of this royal pose, ranging from simple to challenging.
Experiment with different hand and forearms placements to challenge your sense of balance and then start twisting and playing with your legs, creating complex shapes and honing your concentration.
Most importantly, recognize that the main aim of headstand is to give you a new perspective of your life and give you the insights needed for growth.
The workshop will end with a Yoga Nidra to give you a space to digest and integrate the teachings.
N.B. This is not a beginners’ workshop. To join, you must already be proficient in headstand i.e. capable of going up into the posture without “jumping” and able to hold it comfortably for at least one minute (without wall support).
