Inversion Basics

 ,   Add to calendar
 Mercer Island  See map

Learn the basic building blocks to safely come into your own inversions. Understand the strength and discover the tools necessary to safely conquer the basics of inverting.


You will be led through a gentle practice to prepare the body to invert. Breath and the uddiyana (core) will be a focus as well as opening the shoulders, wrists and neck.


Four of the basic inversions will then be covered:Supported Headstand, Tripod Headstand, Forearm Balance and Headstand. You can still learn and grown even when you struggle, so don't think you cannot attend if you are challenged with just headstand. All the greatest accomplishments come out when one is challenged!


Walls will be utilized as a tool to give you comfort and allow you to invert without fear. Regan will be there hands on to assist you into some of the inversions as well as provide encouragement as you develop your strength and confidence while inverted.


 You will leave with a deeper understanding of inversions and the tools you need to safely get into them in class. If you have ever had any interest in going upside-down, please join us!

Just a short thought to get the word out quickly about anything in your neighborhood.
Share something with your neighbors. Write a new post... What's up? Make an announcement, speak your mind, or sell something

I'll be a bit more direct than Jerry. The new site is a mess. Visually it's extremely cluttered.Read More It's slow, very slow. There appear to be no RSS feeds, a major negative. Following a few links sometimes sends you to a different community's Patch site. And what happened with the editing staff. Unless I missed something, suddenly there are new editors without any warning. No matter what the circumstances, normally such a move would be accompanied by an announcement of some sort. Venice may be the greatest editor ever, but it looks like she is splitting her time among several Patch sites, so the odds are stacked against her. Her "latest activities" list even suggests that she is editing a Patch site down in the San Francisco Bay area. With all due respect, Patch sites should be hyper-local, and the best route to that is a local (i.e. Mercer Islander) editor.

The Jury is still out. I liked the "Old Patch". J
