Workshop date:
A session dedicated to handstand techniques and arm balances. The workshop program includes strengthening the shoulder girdle, stabilizing the core, and learning safe spotting techniques. This workshop is designed for those who want to improve their arm strength and break through the fear of going upside down.
Inversions, such as handstands or forearm stands, are often seen as symbols of yogic physical prowess. However, their true foundation is not just arm strength, but courage, technique, and core stabilization. This workshop with Piotr is an opportunity to break down these complex asanas into their basic elements in a safe, supportive studio environment.
Piotr will lead you through the process of preparing the wrists, building shoulder girdle strength, and activating the deep abdominal muscles. You will learn how to work with the wall and how to fall safely, which is key to breaking through mental barriers. Whether your goal is a freestanding handstand or you simply want to strengthen your body and improve concentration, this workshop will provide a solid foundation for your further practice.
