"On Hands and Head to stand instead"
Thursday 14 march 10:00 - 12:00
In this 3-hour workshop, you will learn more about and improve your techniques for inverted postures based on the Sivananda tradition.
In the beginning, inverted asanas like head- or handstand might look a bit difficult, but with the right technique and training, it is possible to balance your body the other way around. In a small group, Claudia will correct each of you and help you to be more and more aware of your inner balance and strength.
Please make sure that you do not have neck problems, high blood pressure or high intraocular pressure.
In your yoga practice, you should at least be able to do the shoulderstand - Sarvangasana - without any problems.
This workshop will be similar to the one in November 2012.

Style: Sivananda Yoga
Sivananda Yoga is the style of hatha yoga within the lineage of Sivananda Saraswati. It is for the student seeking inner tranquility and centeredness. In a Sivananda class, after warming up the joints, we do the sun salutation, a cardio-vascular exercise, to warm up the whole body and awaken vital energy. This is followed by 12 core postures and their variations to channel and concentrate that vital energy. Between each posture, the student relaxes for a short time which allows for the vital energy to be reabsorbed. After the postural sequence, we practice yogic breathing exercises to tune ourselves inward. This is followed by a long guided relaxation and brief seated meditation. This sequence brings about the overall sense of harmony and well-being one feels after class. Regardless of whether a student comes into class tired or stressed, the balanced nature of the Sivananda sequence renders that student calm and lucid. Go to the Sivananda yoga page.
Teacher: Claudia Schlegel
Claudia started yoga in 1998 while studying physiotherapy and learned how integrating yoga with physiotherapy affected the body much better than physiotherapy alone. She received her yoga teaching certification in 2002 and meditation teaching certification in 2005. Claudia would like to help her students develop a proper sense of their physical body in order for them to access the more subtle inner self. This would enable a greater possibility for spiritual awakening to take place.
