Join Cat for a 2-hour workshop exploring arm balances from the ground up, with curiosity, support, and intelligent strength rather than force.

This workshop is designed to make arm balances feel approachable, embodied, and accessible, whether you’re brand new to them or looking to refine or add to what you already practise.

We’ll begin with a Rocket Yoga inspired warm up - using Sun Salutations and the standing sequence to warm the body and prepare the wrists, hips, spine, and core.

We’ll then explore the arm balances poses (including Crow, Side Crow, Elephant Trunk, and an introduction to Eight-Angle Pose) - whether you’re new to them or wanting to develop them, you can pick and choose your focus - with a smaller group size than a regular class, you can get more personalised support to meet you where you’re at.

There will be a focus on how to work with different variations, transitions, and using props, with the choice to keep one foot grounded throughout.

We’ll then take some rest and explore how we can use the breath and mula bandha (the gentle engagement of the pelvic floor and deep core) to create stability, lightness, and support - moving from intelligent strength rather than relying on upper-body force.

Rather than aiming to “achieve” poses, the focus is on learning how arm balances work, building trust in your body, and exploring at a level that feels right for you.

We’ll finish by grounding back down with gentle counter-poses and a deeply nourishing guided savasana, leaving you feeling steady, spacious, and more connected to your strength.

Suitable for anyone curious about arm balances, no previous experience required.

There is one free space for anyone on no/low income. No questions asked. Please email the studio to book.
