Expand your practice by adding flight to your transitions! This workshop will connect upper-body strength and alignments to your lower-body control so that you can explore arm balances with ABHAYA (fearlessness). By strengthening and conditioning the core, you will expand yourself to new levels of development and understanding. By employing mechanics found in physics, applying leverage and focal points, your load will be lessened and stabilization will increase, making more complex arm balances accessible. Through metaphors, demonstrations and a lotof practice, you will learn principles of lightening the hips and legs while tapping into your upper-body power and strength. Your own strength and applied techniques will empower you to explore new levels of your practice. Various arm balances will be broken down in a step-by-step approach so you can work within your limits while exploring your edge. Lighten your load and your practice and learn to float!
