Summary

Vinyasa Yoga flow taking you into Candle Pose - or Sarvangasana in Sanskrit.   In this class you can progress to Candle - or unsupported shoulder stand. This is an open class, which means that all students can practice. BUT, always practice with full consideration for your own well-being, what you can do, what you cannot do. Additionally - don't practice inversions if you have neck issues, shoulders issues, blood pressure issues, any eye pressure issues, or if you are pregnant. Shoulder stand is the queen of yoga poses - so called because of the may benefits (physical, energetic, nervous, mental and spiritual benefits) that the yogi will gain from the practice. This is the reason that I always teach a supported shoulder stand in all of my classes. Shoulder Stand (Sarvangasana = all body pose)  is challenging pose because it requires solid grounding to the Earth through open and steady shoulders, as well as a strong core (abdominal and lower back), firm yet open ujjayi breath, as well as a sharply focused and tuned mind. - Essentially, a well-refined Vinyasa Yoga practice is a requirement for candle pose - This class is a Jivamukti Yoga class - for those students who have a love for it.  I hope you enjoy the yoga. Namaste.
