Shoulderstand:
Build, Refine, Restore

Saturday, September 19
9:30am - 11:00am

Discover how a well-supported Shoulderstand (Salamba Sarvangasana) can become one of the most rewarding postures in your practice. In this welcoming 90-minute workshop, you'll learn how thoughtful preparation, skillful alignment, and the intelligent use of props create a pose that feels both steady and spacious.

Together we'll explore:

  • Essential prop setups for your body and experience level

  • Shoulder-opening actions that create space and freedom in the pose

  • Correct weight distribution to protect the neck and support the shoulders

  • Step-by-step techniques for entering, refining, and exiting the pose with stability and ease

  • Common alignment challenges and practical refinements drawn from the Iyengar tradition

Whether you're learning Shoulderstand for the first time or refining a long-time practice, you'll gain practical techniques that make the pose safer, more comfortable, and more accessible.

Leave with a deeper understanding of the "why" behind the pose—and the confidence to practice this “Queen of Asanas” with greater ease, stability, and joy.
