Intro to Arm Balances
Explore lightness and strength in arm balance and handstand transitions as we deconstruct and play with some very fun Yoga poses. Suitable for all levels! Our aim is to help you build confidence, map and imprint the shapes the arm balances take and look at the balance points for the flight using props and walls. Challenge yourself to ask the question, “What part of this can I do?” and then delight in what you achieve.
Unlocking the Hips
The hips are the gateway to the lower back and good spinal health. From a modern-day lifestyle of sitting, we have lost the ability to perceive mentally the muscles in the legs, inner thighs and pelvic floor to the detriment of the hips. This workshop will explore the hips and connections to begin creating space in the joint. Using yoga poses and acupressure, you will explore techniques and sequences to open up the muscles that lock up and bind the hips and lower back. Suitable for all levels.
Meet Finlay
Finlay has a background teaching Vinyasa, Hatha, Asthanga and over half of his 17 year career teaching Forrest Yoga. Finlay teaches Forrest Yoga with a twist of anatomy and functional range movement which means the variety of workshops offered is quite broad, as you will see. Most of them are suitable for all levels as there are stages to work through for everyone. Very much focused on the how’s and why’s of poses and how we can make them work for each person, rather than a one size fits all approach. Following the huge success of his two Kilted Yoga books, Finlay has also recently had his third book published with this focusing on accessibility Adapting Chair Yoga for Every Body
