Description

An embryology approach to hanging & handstands. Explore how the hands are portals to the upper core and discover how it's ALL CONNECTED. Journey into the upper core with me through the spiraling breathing arms to experience new ways to load and suspend from your hands. As an avid indoor rock climber for a couple years, I noticed my best hand stands were directly after a climb. Come learn why this makes sense and experience what it means to feel your "hands open" and root to the spine for a softer more supportive handstand. We will explore movements on the pilates apparatus in unique ways to naturally awaken awareness of fascial links of the arm to the spine to cultivate whole body handstands and hanging. This workshop is for intermediate-advanced students and teachers with a regular yoga & or pilates practice. I will be coaching from an embodied pilates and yoga perspective to help cultivate a deeper understanding in the body of the deep upper core. You do not have to have a handstand or hanging practice. We will all begin the exploration with foundational movements and building blocks into better hanging and handstands approaches. Those with a current hanging or handstand practice will be able to explore more advanced movements while intermediate levels will work on building up to advanced explorations. Please contact me if you are uncertain of your abilities. No refunds once you register as spots are limited. Can't wait to hang with ya!!!!
