with Becky Mingo

Do you feel like your arms and shoulders are a bit lost in backbends? Do you want to learn how to push up into Urdhva Dhanurasana (full wheel), with intelligence and ease? Are you hoping to understand how to find comfort in some of the deepest backbends like Kapotasana and Pincha Mayurasana (forearm pose)?

This workshop is for you!

From the hands to the arm pits, it is important to understand both how to open and how to strengthen the arms and shoulders.

In this workshop, expect to:
• learn the basic actions of the arms and shoulders in backbends,
• explore these concepts in increasingly challenging poses,
• watch and assist each other,
• and end with deep rest.

Workshop is geared toward students who comfortable exploring backbends. Please reach out to becky@theshalapittsburgh.com, if you are not sure if this workshop is for you!
