Join us for this empowering 2-hour Strength and Conditioning Yoga Workshop, where you'll develop the strength, technique, and confidence to elevate your practice and explore the joy of inversions! Whether you're seeking to improve your existing inversions or attempting them for the first time, this workshop will support your journey towards mastering headstand, handstand, and pincha (forearm stand). 

Duration: 2 hours (intensive session)
Intensity: Intermediate (prior yoga experience recommended)

Warm-Up:
We'll begin with a brief warm-up to activate and prepare the body for the upcoming inversions. This will include gentle stretches for the shoulders, wrists, hamstrings, and core activation exercises.

Alignment and Technique:
Next, we'll break down the proper alignment and technique to safely work towards each inversion: headstand, handstand, and pincha. 

Strength-Building Exercises:
We will focus on specific strength-building exercises to target the muscles necessary for maintaining stability during inversions. We will emphasise core strength, shoulder stability, and forearm engagement.

Practice and Modifications:
Participants will have the opportunity to practice headstand, handstand, and pincha with the guidance of the Jodie. Modifications will be offered to cater to different levels of experience and ability.

• Headstand: Supported headstand and variations, including tripod headstand.

• Handstand: Wall-supported handstand and stag-leg handstand.

• Pincha: Forearm balance with props for support and stability.

Cool Down and Relaxation:
To conclude the workshop, we will ease the body and mind with gentle stretches and relaxation techniques. This will help release tension in the shoulders, neck, and wrists after the inversions.

Preparation and Requirements:

• Yoga Experience: Participants should have prior yoga experience, preferably with some exposure to basic inversions or arm balances.

• Physical Readiness: This workshop requires a moderate level of physical fitness. Participants should be free from any injuries or health conditions that might hinder their ability to perform inversions.

• Props: Mats and props (blocks or straps) will be provided, but participants are welcome to bring their own if preferred.

• Positive Attitude: An open mind, a willingness to challenge oneself, and a positive attitude are essential for the best learning experience.
