WORKSHOP 3 – HANDSTAND SKILLS AND DRILLS (3HRS)
intermediate
In this intermediate handstand session, we breakdown entries and skills such as hollowbacks, head positions and the seven. Rama shares his handstand skill-path; a series of simple checkpoints designed to help anyone progress from no handstand at all, to weight shifting on one arm. This workshop is less about playing with handstands or showing off and more about fundamental development. Come prepare with questions and leave with a clear path to help you achieve your handstand goals.
6. APRIL 09.00 – 12.00
WORKSHOP 4 – HOLISTIC PATTERNS (3HRS)
for health and longevity
Physical health and well-being doesn’t need to be complex and time-consuming. This workshop offers insight into Rama’s secret techniques for bulletproofing the body. Explore techniques such as spinal waves, shoulder CARs, holistic patterns and short, but effective routines anyone can include for increasing strength, mobility and pain-free living with Holistic Movement Mastery. Note - of all the sessions Rama will offer, this is his favourite and the one he feels is most important for modern movers!
6. APRIL 13.00 – 16.00
WORKSHOP 5 – INTELLIGENT SPINE (3HRS)
the art of back-bending
This all-levels workshop is partly practical and partly educational. Rama will shed light on the do’s and don’ts of intelligent back-bending. The session begins with skill deconstruction and an effective warm-up targeting key anatomy. Explore classical technique and common errors for classical backbends such as cobra, locust, bow and wheel pose. Learn how to enhance spinal mobility without weakening the body. Combat low-back pain. Participants walk away feeling motivated and more confident in their ability to increase spinal strength and mobility over time.
