About Deepen Your Practice: Advanced Asanas
In these sessions, we do not just jump into headstands or crow pose. I have you start by building stability with blocks and wall ropes so your joints feel supported, not strained. It is a slow, methodical approach: we focus on the geometry of the pose first, and the elevation comes naturally when the alignment is honest.
Advanced asana practice is often misunderstood as simply being about flexibility. At Body Temple, it is about understanding the mechanics of your body. Whether you are aiming for Bakasana (crow pose), Sirsasana (headstand), or deep backbends like Eka Pada Rajakapotasana, we strip away the ego.
If you find yourself stuck at a plateau, it is usually an alignment issue. We use Iyengar-style props—metal chairs, bolsters, and wall ropes—to create the traction needed to open tight shoulders or hips. This is vital for safety, especially when you are exploring inversions.
We break down every movement into actionable steps. You learn how to engage your core for stability before lifting into an arm balance, and how to use the wall to refine your vertical alignment in inversions. My philosophy remains the same: Ruko—hold, breathe, and let the posture mature. It takes time, but this methodical, prop-assisted approach ensures that when you finally hold the pose, you hold it with strength and grace, not by forcing your muscles. We welcome serious practitioners who are ready to commit to the process, not just the result.
Body Temple Yoga Studio
I am Abhishek Khurana. I started Body Temple six years ago because I wanted a space where we could be honest about our practice, sweat, and share a laugh. I am here to guide your inversions and backbends with the same patience I use to teach the basics—because even the hardest pose is just another breath.
