Inversions and Handstands

On Sunday, October 11th, from 18:00–20:30, @johnkarvelis returns to Aiorisis for a workshop dedicated to inversions and handstands. The workshop is organized by @verticalproject_trainings in collaboration with Aiorisis. A stable handstand isn’t just built by trying again and again. It requires understanding what’s happening in the body, what’s missing, and what the next step should be. In this workshop, we’ll work on exactly that process: drills, assists, and progressions that help us gradually develop our technique in inversion poses. We’ll start with a dynamic practice to prepare the body for the work ahead, and then we’ll focus on elements like alignment, activation, balance, and body position in space. Using specific drills, we’ll isolate different aspects of the handstand, while partner assists will give us the opportunity to work on poses and movements with greater precision and safety. The goal isn’t just to “get into” a handstand, but to better understand how we build it. The workshop is addressed to practitioners with some Yoga experience, Yoga & Pilates teachers, dancers, performers, trainers, and anyone looking to develop their inversion practice. You don’t need to have a stable handstand already to participate.
