Kevin: Headstander Helper (58 minutes)
Play Hard
•
57m
In this class, we cross-reference the actions of backward extension alongside those of virasana (hero’s pose) as a way to feel more secure in sirsasana (headstand). There is not really a breakdown of how to headstand; instead, the intention is to help those who are already able to get up there develop a better relationship with the pose. Along the way, expect a lot of deep love and attention to be given to the shoulders.

This is a slow, delicious practice with all the things, including some good time to backbend, come upside down, breath and get into your armpits. Including a long savasana. You will thank me later. Enjoy!

Miles: Let My Love Open The Door (69 ...
Wall
This is sort of a yan/ying practice, where we work slowly but methodically with lots of abs, Uddhiana and slow hip openers to build to ashtavakrasana arm balance (the crooked limbs arm balance), and handstand practice. It ends with a long viparitakarani (legs up the wall). Enjoy!
