ARM BALANCE WORKSHOP: ✈️The Magic of Flight✈️

DATE: Wednesday, September 23rd

TIME: 6:30-8:30 PM

“The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.”
— Marcel Proust

Sometimes, to see the world differently, we have to turn ourselves upside down.

There is a moment when the feet leave the earth and, for just a breath, everything changes.

The familiar relationship with gravity disappears. The hands become the ground. The body becomes lighter than you imagined. The world shifts beneath you. And somewhere between effort and surrender, you discover the strange and beautiful possibility of flight.

This workshop is an invitation to explore that space.

We’ll begin by preparing the body through intentional movement designed to awaken the wrists, shoulders, core, hips, and the deeper stabilizing muscles that make arm balances possible. From there, we’ll slow everything down and explore the mechanics behind balancing on the hands—learning where to place your weight, how to create strength and stability through the upper body, how to engage the core, and how the smallest shift can completely transform a pose.

Together, we’ll break down a variety of arm balances step by step, exploring different entrances, variations, transitions, and modifications. There will be space to experiment, play, ask questions, fall, begin again, and discover what becomes possible when we stop demanding certainty before we're willing to try.

Because arm balancing is as much an inner practice as it is a physical one.

It asks us to change our perspective.

To move toward the place where instinct tells us to pull away. To lean forward without knowing exactly what will happen. To trust our strength before we have proof of it. To loosen our attachment to the ground beneath us and become curious about what might happen if we allow ourselves to leave it.

And perhaps that is where the real magic begins.

Not in mastering the perfect pose, but in discovering that the moment we are willing to see things differently, an entirely different world becomes possible.

This workshop is about Curiosity. Courage. Play. Trust.

It’s about the subtle conversation between strength and softness, control and surrender, earth and air.

⚱️Come explore your edge.
⚱️Come change your perspective.
⚱️Come turn fear into possibility.
⚱️Come fall down, laugh, try again, and surprise yourself.

And perhaps, somewhere along the way, discover that gravity never had quite as much power over you as you thought.
