This summer Jani heads over to Malaysia and China, and on the weekend of 2nd and 3rd July, Sun Yoga in Kuala Lumpur is proud to host two of Jani's workshops.


2 July - 2pm to 4pm
Hatha 4 Groups of Standing Asanas Workshop

In this workshop, we will study standing poses and how you can divide them into 4 groups.  The standing poses teach and allow us to move the spine in all directions : forward extensions, back extensions, side to side extensions, and lateral, or twisting motions. We will exemplify both basic and advanced forms with step by step instructions on the execution of poses. This prepares the body for all categories of asanas. Standing poses are beneficial for strengthening of the legs, hips opening and improving sense of balance.

3 July - 10.30am to 1.30pm

Arm Balance Workshop

This workshop will provide in-depth instruction and guidance with challenging arm balances. We will also examine techniques on how to protect your joints by using various bandhas. Create freedom and strength in hip, neck and shoulders. Strengthen and lengthen the muscles around these joints and create space in these areas. Come learn a pathway to channel these postures into your everyday practice with ease and excitement!
