$45.00 Arm Balances with Ahmed
This workshop will take place in the Arlington Studio, in-person only.
Arm balances require strength, control, and focus, making them an excellent way to build confidence and mental clarity. This workshop will cover techniques for mastering foundational arm balances like Crow, One Legged Crow, Side Crow, and Eight Angled Pose and more.
Join Ahmed as he covers basics for these postures, with personalizations and props to help you build up to them. He will include some mindfulness exercises to help manage any fear or self-doubt that may arise when trying new arm balances.
Whatever the specifics, this workshop will be an educational and empowering experience for all who attend!
