Learn to harness your entire core.

Building a Balanced + Strong Core

YogaHaven Clapham (in-studio) and via Zoom (online)
Sunday 1 November
1pm - 3pm (GMT)

What does it actually mean to “engage your core” and is it necessary in our yoga practice?

Many of us are familiar with the front section of our core (anterior abdominals) but this only paints part of a bigger picture. Our anatomical core resembles a 3-dimensional cylinder comprising a network of muscles that work together to provide support and stability for the entire body.

Given the practice of yoga orientates towards a state of equanimity, it’s important to address all areas of our core in a balanced way. This 2 hour workshop will expand your knowledge and lead you to harness your entire core for increased strength, sustainable movement and a healthy yoga practice.

During this workshop, you will:

  • Practice a thoughtful yet functional Vinyasa-based sequence that explores in depth each component of the core 

  • Move beyond endless “crunches” and learn how to build core integration in subtle and accessible ways

  • Practice a range of strengthening techniques and explore their application in sun salutations, standing postures and the preparations for arm balances and inversions

  • In contrast, learn how to stretch and release our midsection in a way that promotes compassionate care

Open to all levels.
