Description
Regardless of your level of study, you are welcome to join Basha as she guides you into safe and stable foundational inversion postures in this workshop.
Headstand, shoulderstand and handstand are poses in which we are challenged to be COURAGEOUS, FLEXIBLE (mostly in our minds!) and PATIENT We will explore “gateway” postures that create the strength your body requires to flip upside down, the mechanics of inversions, and how to safely enter and evacuate your poses
We will be breaking down the do’s and dont’s of handstand, headstand, shoulderstand and forearm stand with prepatory postures, fundamental warm ups and essential counter poses.
This is an all levels offering, with the intention of helping you remember that you’re confident, strong, and capable. This course is however counter-indicated to those with glaucoma, heart conditions and women on their moon cycle or who are pregnant.
