Arm Balance and Core Strength Yoga Workshops in Bangalore
Learn to fly safely with step-by-step guidance. Whether you're working on your first Crow Pose or refining advanced transitions, I’ll help you build the core stability and wrist strength to lift off with confidence.
Strong and happy wrists are key for arm balances. This video shows some of my favorite wrist warm up and strengthening exercises to do before any arm balancing practice.
Here are a few exercises to build a stronger core. Poses like Navasana (Boat Pose) and forearm plank are excellent for developing the stability needed for arm balances.
Let's learn Side Crow. This tutorial shows two versions, one with more support and one that requires more core strength. Make sure you have a strong Crow Pose before trying this.
Here is a breakdown of Astavakrasana (Eight Angle Pose). This arm balance requires hip flexibility and upper body strength. I show how to use blocks to help you get the lift.
A step by step guide to Mayurasana (Peacock Pose). This is a challenging arm balance that requires significant wrist and core strength. We build up to it slowly.
Vasisthasana (Side Plank) is a beautiful balancing and strengthening posture. This tutorial shows different modifications to scale the pose up or down depending on your level.
A tutorial for Bhujapidasana (Shoulder Pressing Pose). I show how to use blocks to create more space if you have tight hips, making the pose more accessible.
The art of being alone. Finding strength and solitude in an arm balance on the beach.
Our bodies are to be celebrated. They give us the opportunity to move, play, and practice poses like this Kakasana (Crow Pose).
Happiness is transitioning from Eka Pada Koundinyasana to Chin Stand. A playful flow that challenges strength and control.
About Arm Balance & Core Strength Workshops
Getting into arm balances like Bakasana (Crow) or Mayurasana (Peacock) isn’t just about raw strength; it’s about understanding leverage and weight distribution. In these workshops, we spend time on the 'boring' stuff—wrist warm-ups and scapular protraction—because that is the secret to protecting your joints while you learn to fly.
Building From the Ground Up
Many of us think arm balances require huge muscles, but that’s a misconception. It’s mostly about understanding how to use your breath (Pranayama) and how to stack your joints.
In my Bangalore workshops, held at studios like Good Move in Koramangala, we strip back the fear. If you’ve ever tried an arm balance and felt stuck, it's usually just because you haven't been shown how to set your foundation.
What we cover:
- Wrist Health: We start with specific drills to stretch and strengthen the forearms. If you work a desk job, this is a game-changer for your daily life, not just your yoga practice.
- Core Engagement: We build the 'Bandhas' (energy locks) that keep you light. We move beyond simple crunches to work on the deep stability needed for poses like Astavakrasana (Eight Angle Pose).
- Safe Exits: The biggest barrier to these poses is the fear of falling. I teach you how to face-plant safely so you can practice without constant anxiety.
Your Pace, Your Journey
I intentionally keep these sessions small. Whether you are aiming for your first lift-off or you want to transition smoothly between poses, you get hands-on spotting. We laugh when we wobble, we reset, and we try again.
There is no ego here. Some days you will nail it, other days you will feel heavy. Both are perfectly fine. My job is to make sure you have the technique, and the rest is just showing up and having fun. ❤️
