November calendar...

Check out what we have going on in November (is it really that close to the end of the year already??!)

Inversion Poses Workshop with Yoshio

Saturday, November 7th: 3:30 - 6:30pm

$35 pre-registration, $45 day of

We are very excited to be hosting Yoshio and Mariangel in this All Levels Inversion Workshop in November.

 

This workshop will focus on Sirshasana (head stand) and PinchaMayurasana (forearm balance). Headstand calms the mind, strengthens the arms, legs and spine and improves balance. Regular headstand practice rejuvenates brain cells and stimulates the nervous system. Forearm balance is a stress-relieving pose that also strengthens and stretches the shoulders, arms, and back.

This workshop is intended to teach the spiritual intention of these poses and give students time to slowly work on them, making rapid progress in a short time.
