Upside down yoga: pose 11

Turn everything upside down…life, exercise, yoga!

Look at life from a different perspective and step out of the comfort zone. Overcome fear and discover how to defy gravity.

“You’re never more alive than when things get turned upside down.” Malcolm Gladwell

There are many times in life that you might find yourself upside-down. But always remeber that going upside down gives you the confidence to try something new and to trust yourself  as you  explore your abilities.

Try with us. Don’t be afraid.
Try again…
