Inversion Immersion

Taking a Leap of Faith

with Michael Faith

**WORKSHOP FULL**

 

Sometimes your only mode of transportation is a leap of faith...
 
The thought of working into yoga postures that turn us upside down can be both invigorating and scary at the same time. This 4 week workshop aimed at beginning level students will be led by Yoga 101 teacher Michael Faith. In this series learn step by step how to enter into inversions with mindful attentiveness to details as well as embodying a playful and exploratory nature as you learn to take a leap and invert. 
 
Techniques will be given to learn how to work the body from the inside out waking every part of the body up to support the process of  "leaping" into the poses. Inversions will be broken down into a clear manner and worked through several ways to help everyone understand the foundations of the pose so that all levels can find a way to express the pose in a way that meets their body's evolution. Class will also explore how breath and intention co-operate with alignment to bring about the action of the pose. EVERYONE will find SOME variation of poses that will work for them. You will find success with inversions this time, and at least have fun if you don't!
 
Class will take us through variations of headstand, hand stand, shoulder stand and forearm balance. If these are poses that seem elusive to you or that you struggle with; this workshop will be for you.
 
Please bring your sense of adventure and your humor to this practice.

 

Space is limited. Pre-Registration is required. Register here.

PLEASE NOTE: This is a 4-week series and is meant to be attended on all of the above dates.
