I keep my live sessions strictly capped so I can watch every movement through your camera and offer specific, verbal micro-corrections in real-time. Whether you are learning your first Crow Pose or refining your Pincha Mayurasana, you will know exactly which muscle to engage and how to shift your weight. ### The Foundation of Inversions Many students approach inversions like the Pincha Mayurasana or Headstand with fear because they treat them as 'final poses' to be achieved instantly. That is how injuries happen. My approach is different: we focus on the drills, not the destination. We build your practice through: * **Core Compression:** You cannot balance if you do not know how to engage your core, not just your abs. I teach you how to create tension in the right places. * **Shoulder Stability:** Inversions are about shoulder alignment. If your alignment is off, no amount of force will help you balance. I guide you on how to depress and stabilize your shoulders for a stable base. * **Falling Safely:** If you are afraid of falling, you will never balance. I teach you how to bail out of inversions safely so you can practice with confidence, not panic. ### Why No Props? I avoid reliance on props like bricks and straps because they create a false sense of security. If you learn to hold a pose because a prop is holding you up, you are not learning to control your own body. We use the floor, the wall, and your own body mechanics. This builds genuine strength that stays with you long after the class ends. ### The Online Reality This is not a pre-recorded tutorial where you guess if you are doing it right. My online group classes require video-on participation. When I say 'Kakasana' (Crow Pose), I am looking at your shins, your palms, and your shoulder tension. You will receive verbal corrections specific to your body type and limitations. We take the time to unlearn the 'internet' myths and focus on what your body actually needs to progress. ## About Manjunath Murthy I’m Manjunath.
