Yoga Styles: Arm Balancing
Why arm balancing?
That is a very good question. Of course arm balances look very impressive, but it’s not about growing your instagram followers. Arm balancing postures challenge body and mind on different levels.
First of all you need and will develop full body strength. You will learn to control your physical body, to make it stronger and more flexible, which will make your mind calmer and more flexible.
Suddenly balancing your body weight onto your hands requires courage. Continuous practice helps you to build confidence and to connect with the wisdom of your body.
To move into and to stay in an arm balance asana for longer depends on focus and concentration. If your mind is distracted and your attention is not with your body it is unlikely to be successful. As with every Yoga practice – Presence is key!
Our 50 hours arm balancing Yoga teacher training is for intermediate to advanced Yoga practitioners, who are looking for a new way to challenge body and mind.
This course is embedded in the YACEP programme of Yoga Alliance and you can add the 50 hours of this course to your continuous education hours.
Balancing on your hands can be inspiring and intimidating at the same time. This is why we will go step by step preparing your body for the more advanced postures. After attending our 50 hours arm balancing training in Bali we want you to feel confident to practice and teach arm balancing asanas in your Yoga classes.
In our theory sessions we will revise Patanjali’s Ashtanga Yoga – the eight limbs of Yoga again, as they build the foundation of living a yogic life. Even though asana practice is important to keep our bodies strong and flexible, ultimately, it is intended to prepare our bodies to sit comfortably for long hours during mediation.
Sanskrit is the language of Yoga and all posture names have their origin in the world’s oldest language. In this Teacher training you will learn the Sanskrit breakdown of the arm balance asana names.
You will learn how to engage the bandhas to lift up and retain the prana inside your body to get stability of body and mind when practicing the arm balancing postures. Mudras help to control the prana, increase the flexibility and strength of our hands and balance the five elements. And in the end arm balancing is all about balancing body and mind.
