Learning to Fly - An Arm Balances Workshop with Nino + Fiona

Your facilitator

In Yogarise Peckham - Yoga & Reformer Pilates classes’s words

Intrigued about arm balances but not sure if or how you will ever get there? (trust us you will). Alternatively, you're loving your arm balance practice but want to take it further. This workshop is for you! On November 28th, Fiona and Nino will guide you through a 2-hour arm balance workshop where they will introduce key arm balances, explain the anatomy behind these poses, help you develop the strength and intelligence needed in your body and mind to access them, and give you the opportunity to put these into practice with a 4BEAT/ROCKET sequence tailored specifically to help you progress in them together. If you're keen to know which kind of poses, here's a little summary from Fiona "We'll be exploring Bakasana (Crow), Eka Pada Bakasana, Parsva Bakasana, all the funky variations, the Koundinyasanas, Astavakrasana, Mula Bandha check-ins, Eka Hasta Bhujasana, Tittibhasana, and all the transitions in and out of them from Sirsasana (Headstand)." Fiona and Nino can't wait for you to join them so that they can meet you wherever you are in your arm balance practice and help you to move yourself forward (be that on your arms, hands or even further). Fiona discovered Yoga back in 2014 on a sweltering hot day in Hong Kong when she was on maternity leave from her job as a litigation lawyer after having had her second baby in as many years. When she struggled not to pick up her phone as it started ringing during the class (to her now horror when she looks back on it!), Fiona started to realise that Yoga might be beneficial for her in more than just a physical way. Fiona got addicted to her Yoga practice fairly fast in true Type A lawyer style and went on to complete her first teacher training in Hong Kong in 2018. Since then Fiona has done advanced trainings with Patrick Creelman, Jason Crandell, Marcus Veda and Hannah Whittingham. She teaches Rocket Inspired 4 Beat Vinyasa to music and her classes focus on finding stillness and focus through the breath and proper alignment
