Yoga styles: Arm balancing
Why arm balancing?
That is a very good question. Of course, arm balances look very impressive, but it’s not about growing your Instagram followers. Arm balancing postures challenge the body and mind on different levels.
First of all, you need and will develop full-body strength. You will learn to control your physical body, to make it stronger and more flexible, which will make your mind calmer and more flexible.
Suddenly balancing your body weight onto your hands requires courage. Continuous practice helps you to build confidence and to connect with the wisdom of your body.
To move into and to stay in an arm balance asana for longer depends on focus and concentration. If your mind is distracted and your attention is not on your body it is unlikely to be successful. As with every yoga practice, presence is the key!
Yoga theory
The theory classes will revise Patanjali’s Ashtanga yoga – the eight limbs of yoga again, as they build the foundation of living a yogic life. Even though asana practice is important, to keep your body strong and flexible, ultimately, it is intended to prepare your body to sit comfortably for long hours during meditation.
Sanskrit is the language of yoga and all posture names have their origin in the world’s oldest language. In this teacher training, you will learn the Sanskrit breakdown of the arm balance asana names.
You will learn how to engage the bandhas to lift up and retain the prana inside your body to get the stability of body and mind when practicing the arm balancing postures.
Mudras help to control the prana, increase the flexibility and strength of our hands and balance the five elements. And in the end, arm balancing is all about balancing body and mind.
Anatomy and physiology
To practice arm balancing asanas efficiently and safely, an understanding of the skeletal and muscular system, as well as core and spine anatomy, are essential. The class will put a special focus on the hands, wrists, elbows, and shoulders and when you understand bone-to-bone alignment, you will realize that some postures are easier to master than you thought.
