Arm Balances and Inversions Workshop with Daniel Hickman

Cultivate your strength, poise and focus by standing on your hands and taking a different look at things—upside down! An inversion is when the brain is lower than the heart and thus causes a shift in the circulation of blood, prana energy and vital fluids in the organism. This influences the chakras of the heart “air” (4th - annahata), throat “ether” (5th - vishuddha), mind’s eye “light and sound” (6th – ajna) and the crown of the head “celestial” (7th – sahasrara).

Balancing on the arms promotes instant concentration into the present moment and can develop one’s sense of self-confidence. It also directly affects the cardio-pulmonary nerve plexus, the sinuses, eyesight, inner-circular canals of the ears, and one’s equilibrium. Combined, these yoga asanas are not only challenging but also fun and deeply satisfying to the practitioner. Come and play with us!

For yoga practitioners with ample experience.
