Flying With Two Wings: Inversions
Yoga Works, Walnut Creek, CA
Learn the art of going upside down in a safe, supportive and fun environment. Practicing inversions is a great way to develop balance, strength and confidence. Inversions revitalize and rejuvenate your whole system. Turning your body upside down reverses the effects of gravity, eliminates toxins and elevates your mood and energy. This workshop is designed to help you feel more comfortable and confident practicing inversions in a class setting and at home. There will be a strong focus on alignment and use of props. We will explore arm balances, handstand, headstand and shoulder stand.
