Build an Inversions Practice!

  • Astanga Yoga Ottawa 200 Bank St Ottawa, ON Canada (map)

Inversions like headstand, forearmstand and handstand can be medicine for the mind and the body. When these movements are approached with heightened awareness, they provide a potent antidote to slumping and sitting too much, improve our mood and energy levels.

Join Mike Dynie for an experiential workshop that prioritizes safety, preparations, progressions, and a primer on the essential anatomy. This workshop will primarily focus on headstand and forearmstand — less time will be devoted to handstand as the lessons to do it properly come from the previous two.

You’ll come out of this workshop with a solid grasp on where to direct your energy in your mat practice. We’ll also learn how to properly use the wall (and other common household surfaces) for support, so you can confidently practice going upside down on your own and develop proper positioning.

Workshop Fee:

$50 at the door, $40 with pre-registration (online)
