The Counterbalance to Arm Balancing

  • Shakti Power Yoga 65 Music Square East Nashville, TN, 37203 United States (map)

Join Nicki, E-RYT and hand balance coach in exploring various flight-based shapes on your hands! Increase necessary mobility & strength for arm balances to feel more accessible. In this 2 hour workshop geared for all levels, we will aim to break down entries into crow pose, side crow, EPK1 + EPK2, firefly, funky crow, and flying pigeon. Options to work on transitions in + out of these postures will be offered for practitioners interested in advancing. Arm balance shapes are meant to be used to float from point A to point B, but sometimes it feels like the next step is just falling on your face! Decode what seems like arm balance magic by learning how to use your hands for weight-shifting and your entire body as a counter-balancing tool to remove that sense of heaviness when trying to lift your feet to fly. This practice challenges the nervous system to adapt "on the fly," leveling up not only bent arm strength but also bravery.

Walk away from this workshop with new tools to play with fun shapes next time you are on your mat! If you are an instructor, this session is a great investment to increase your understanding in how to teach arm balance shapes.
