Yoga poses for Beginners at home Virginia

So you are already comfortable with your hammock, basic aerial flow and basic inversions – then this class is for you!

It is very important for students to arrive a minimum of 10 minutes before the start of class so that their hammock may be sized properly. Students who do not arrive at least five minutes before the start of class may find their spot has been given to a standby student.

Clothing requirements: short or long sleeves (no tank tops); no zippers or metal. No jewelry.

Physical Restrictions: Please talk to the instructor before class if you have any concerns. People who have heart disease, high blood pressure, vertigo, eye diseases (such as glaucoma), or are pregnant should consult their doctors first before trying inversions.

Focus on core stabilization, body control, whole body strength and balance and releasing tension to maximize your flexibility.
