Here I found camaraderie, support, knowledge and inspiration that helped me get to where I\u2019m at today.\u00a0 <\/span>When I host a challenge, I know that I\u2019m speaking to many people just like me and I want to make them find health and happiness and know that they can be and do whatever they set their mind to.\u00a0 <\/span>A lot of times we can look at what others are doing, their abilities and how they look and wish we were more like them.\u00a0 <\/span>I want people to get motivated and look at themselves, believing in themselves and conquering their wishes, happy in their own skin. Let that be the cycle.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n What would you like participants to know about it that are thinking of joining?<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n All of the poses in this challenge are designed to compliment, build or further explore an inversion practice.\u00a0 <\/span>Not every pose is upside down, but every pose will be supportive towards that endeavor.\u00a0 <\/span>This challenge is equal parts strength and flexibility, equal parts building blocks and exploring capabilities and equal parts serious and fun.\u00a0 <\/span>Upside down people or those seeking to explore this world\u2026this challenge is for you!<\/span><\/p>\n What can participants expect and what outcomes are you hoping to offer?<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n I hope to provide a quality challenge where intentions are pure and hosts, sponsors and participants are present, challenging ourselves and supporting one another.\u00a0 <\/span>I expect people to be inspired, pleasantly surprised, eager to try more and be a little sore.\u00a0 <\/span>At the end of the day, I hope that everyone walks away taking something with them and preferably joining me some more via my online classes with Omstars!<\/span><\/p>\n How does the challenge connect with or relate to your upcoming course release?<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n My upcoming course series is all about being upside down but not limited to handstands.\u00a0 <\/span>I truly believe in my building block series and think that those who are already capable of standing on their hands could benefit from it as much as complete beginners.\u00a0 <\/span>I believe the winning recipe is the balance of strength, flexibility, alignment, muscle memory, perseverance and release.\u00a0 <\/span>The result is breaking barriers and preventing injuries.\u00a0 <\/span>Technicalities aside, my creative and fun side is very excited to also offer the Upside Down Yoga series.\u00a0 <\/span>Each vinyasa is centered around a specific inversion, incorporating progression, strength, flexibility, counter balance and of course a lot of creative good times.\u00a0 <\/span>You\u2019ll find a couple poses in the challenge that represent the mini workshops I\u2019m offering in my online class series on upside down backhanding and also my personal inversion favorite, the hollow back.\u00a0 <\/span>Well rounded, all levels, vinyasas and workshops!<\/span><\/p>\n Well, are you ready to join or what?
