Inversion fun in the sun .... ❤️
How to spend your afternoon off😍 (sped up x 2)
The main focus was finding balance and holding. Building strength.
My just had to come out to play too especially after joining the Wednesday wheel party ❤️

Thank you Lisa for this fantastic play with a twist and balance ... You and all the crew are truly inspiring 🙏🏻 sending hugs to you all 🤗

I loved getting to hug my wheel too ....
Although getting a balance, flight and twist was something to be in awe of.......
I managed a small twist in the end (see the end of the reel) ... But the only time I could lift my head was when one foot was firmly planted on the ground ...
I focused on having fun and making controlled shapes, with mine being more of a non twisted headstand ❤️
(Reel sped up x 3)

Still time to join me this Saturday for a fun exploration into the upside down world of inversions.
You will find many different types of inversions in a yoga class. The focus of this particular workshop will be to build strength and awareness of your body to work towards entering into a headstand. We will look at two types of headstands; traditional headstand & tripod headstand, and the different approaches towards them.
I love these strong inversions as there really isn't any room for thoughts other than where your body is in time and space.
When: Saturday 25th April
Where:
Time: 1pm - 2:30pm
I look forward to seeing you there💜

I loved playing around with aim in A huge thank you Gary for this rather fun and fantastic deep stretch.

I couldn't resist taking inspiration from Marija .a.yoga.girl and trying this shape in boat pose too.
This is my first attempt at using Instagram edits to construct a reel.....
Anything could happen when I click share.... Let's see

Thank you Marija .a.yoga.girl for this fantastic twisty bind.

It's really good to see you back with your magical Wednesday wheel party poses ❤️🥰🙏🏻
I had some fun with this one and, typically, made it more difficult for myself by trying to balance my feet on the wheel instead of my lower legs🤣.. there wasn't any way I was wrapping around both legs so decided that one left was plenty enough today❤️.... One side was definitely more approachable than the other as the biased ratio of the pics & videos show.

Oh my, this was a difficult one for me .
To begin with I really couldn't work it out. I gave up and decided to run with what I had got. .
Then after looking at a few more lovely posts and watching how they approached this I decided to try again and .... Wahoo... success❤️
Thank you Hélène for this very challenging but fun
I have never really achieved a shiva pose which is probably why I didn't understand the mechanics of this to begin with...... Patience and perseverance helped the practice as always ❤️

I finally got a chance to post after having no WiFi since Saturday 🥰
It's amazing how much I am reliant on this especially as my mobile connection is poor in my house ❤️🥰
Today I am happy to say we passed the test and now have a new router and we are back online
I was already super behind posting anyway 🤣 so today I simply posted the highlights in pictures. No videos of my practice but I did have fun playing around each and every day .
