Session 1, 2nd Apr | Sun Salutations + Standing Poses
In this workshop, we will break down each asana that forms the Sun Salutation sequences and basic standing poses that are commonly used in Flow classes.
Everyone has a different body structure. We’ll dive deep into understanding ourselves, along with the alignment and modifications that will suit our practice better. To connect the poses, we’ll learn safe transitional movements and explore the conscious connection between breath and movement.
The session will offer you a strong foundation and understanding of the energetic Sun Salutation sequences and basic transitions to help you to deepen your practice. Perfect for anyone who is new to Yoga or looking to refine their practice.
Session 2, 9th Apr | Hips & Hamstrings
Do you struggle with tight and/or weak hips and hamstrings? Time to improve on your mobility and flexibility!
But first..what’s the difference between flexibility and mobility?
Flexibility is the body's ability to move passively into a posture, such as half splits and pyramid pose with the help of gravity.
Mobility is the body's ability to engage and control stabilizing muscles to actively move in and out of a posture, such as standing splits, progressing towards the full range of motion.
Find freedom and release deeply held tension and tightness in your hips and hamstrings. Come along to explore, experiment and have fun!
Session 3, 23rd Apr | Backbends & Twists
Many may find backbends intimidating but when performed correctly, it can be therapeutic and helps to release tension (both physically and emotionally). We will explore backbends in depth and their application for different body types. We will look at alignment and variations for all levels, with the usage of props to aid or deepen your practice.
Twists are neutralising poses for deep backbends, also great for creating movement in and around our organs for detox purposes. We’ll work on lengthening and rotation of the spine to create space in between the vertebrae.
Time to get curious about your practice, and we promise you’ll feel energised and refreshed after the session!
Session 4, 30th Apr | Arm Balances & Inversions
Do you find yourself thinking “I’m not strong enough” or “I just can’t do it” every time your teacher cues an arm balance or inversion in class? Time to get out of your head and into your body - you are capable of so much more than you think!
Time to unlock the secrets to floating with ease and lightness as we break down each pose to guide you safely and effectively while taking flight. Build strength, confidence and overcome your fear of going upside down in a safe and supportive environment. Expect a strong and playful class, as you feel the power of taking flight and seeing the world from a new perspective!
