In Sanskrit, "bandha" translates as "lock." 

The bandhas help us activate deep inner strength and alignment without relying on the 'brute force' of muscle mass.   Bandhas combine physicality, breathe, and focussed energetic awareness (inc. imagery and the imagination) to activate energetic flow & alignment in the body. They are  energetic locks in the body that help us find ease, grace, lift and alignment in our yoga practice.

In this 90-minute workshop, we will explore Hasta and Padha Bandha - the hand and foot bandhas. This is a meditative breathing technique which will teach you to connect to, activate and engage with your foundational bandhas.

We will then explore different poses and movements which utilise the bandhas, including jumping to the top of the mat and building up to an L-handstand against the wall.

Learn more about the bandhas in my blog here.
