ARM BALANCE - PART 2
WORKSHOP
BREEZE YOGA - 25th MARCH 2022
Arm balances can be such a fun part of our daily yoga practice. But all this fun, can often be replaced by fear, frustration or even anger especially when we do not understand the principles and mechanism or arm balances.
During this 90’ minutes workshop, Salvo will guide you through a short asana practice to prepare your body providing some essential warm up exercises followed by plenty of time to explore a range of different arm balances and techniques that can help you feel more confident and more relax while performing this type of asanas.
Some of the postures you will be exploring during this workshop are:
- Bakasana - Crow pose
- Eka Pada Bakasana - One legged crow
- Eka Pada Galavasana - Flying Pigeon
- Eka Pada Koundinyasa II - Hurdler pose
If you are at the beginning of your arm balance journey, We will strongly recommend you to attend to the “BEGINNER ARM BALANCE” Workshop first, as the format of this workshop is for students that have already started their arm balances journey and want to learn some more complex asanas and techniques.

THE ART OF TRANSITIONING
WORKSHOP
SAMSARA MIND&BODY - 13th MAY 2023
Refine and grow your yoga practice, join me for this 90min workshop where you will be safely instructed on how to transition from asana to asana with grace, control and precision. When we attend yoga classes, we often focus entirely on individual asanas and how to master them, but don’t take enough time to focus on the fluidity when we release from one pose and prepare for the next one.
During this workshop, you will be led through a vinyasa flow sequence where we will be breaking down important elements of our practice. We will take time to slow down and tune into our bodies as yoga transitions are the perfect opportunity to connect more deeply with our bodies and stay in the present moment.
This workshop welcomes everyone with a regular practice who’s interested in refining their skills and feel more confident and comfortable when attending a flow based class and new teachers are welcome.
In this 90min workshop you will learn:
- How to prepare and warm up the body before practice.
- Techniques, tips and tricks for moving lightly through a vinyasa sequence.
- Essential jumps and arm balances.
- How to use props to assist our practice.
ARM BALANCING & INVERSION
WORKSHOP
YOGA RISE STREATHAM - 10th June 2023
This workshop is all about learning how to break down the fundamental components of one of the most popular inversion in vinyasa yoga “Pincha Mayurasana”. And in order to master these fundamentals, we need to conquer our fear of falling, develop strength as well as flexibility and grow our ability to concentrate. In this two hours workshop, Salvo will be guiding you through a series of preparatory isolation exercises, provide you with important informations about what inversions are and offer tailored adjustments. During this workshop there will be plenty of time to practice and have a proper understanding of this asana. This workshop is suitable for beginners and intermediate practitioners that are willing to expand their practice.
