Elevate Your Practice: Level Up with Jamie
Jaime HepburnShayna breaks down Handstand (Adho Mukha Vrksasana) A Level 3 pose, Handstand is exactly as it sounds (standing on your hands). The translation of Adho Mukha Vrksasana is Upward Facing Tree Pose. The mother of all yoga inversions, Handstand is both challenging, fun and playful. It wasn't too long ago when were children that we would try walking on our hand for fun. Well it's come full circle and here we are again as "grown ups" trying to by playful and carefree and challenge ourselves to once again "walk on our hands". The goal is always to have fun and not to judge yourself. So if you are inspired to go upside down than Handstand might just be your thing. Shayna will guide you step by step to get you upside down!

Shayna was born and raised in Jersey but always has been a California girl at heart! She started practicing yoga while studying abroad in Australia during college. She fell in love and ended up returning to the states and completed her first 200 hour teacher training on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. Since then, she has almost ten years and 1,000 hours of professional yoga training. Yoga was and still is like a best friend- a reminder to be present and enjoy being in your body. It led her to self-love, strength, and the ability to create a life she loves. Sharing the gift of yoga and witnessing her students’ personal transformation, inside and out, is an honor and a privilege for her.
