Arm balances and inversions are not only fun and playful ways to challenge your body, they are also insightful teachers in the quest to bring stillness to the body and the mind. Join onlYoga’s John Merideth as he explains and demonstrates how to build the core strength and concentration needed to approach these poses with confidence and proper alignment.

If you’ve never experienced the lightness and power of flight, this workshop will guide you step by step though its dynamics. It will explore the delicate balance of control and surrender so you can begin to defy gravity.

If you’ve been flying for awhile, take your practice further. Fine tune your alignment and your breath. Build endurance and understand the qualities that will allow you to gracefully explore advanced variations.

$35 in advance
