Learn proven techniques to master common inversions

change your perspective

It took me years to progress with inversions. I lacked proper guidance and technique, and as a result, my practice was inefficient and ineffective. I created this program to save you from that. Over time I understood the proper inversions technique and developed a set of effective drills that I now share with my students.

This course is for you if...

You are a yogi, athlete, or none of those and would like to learn skills that will enrich your body and mind.

you can invest 30-45 minutes, 5 times a week to practice and learn the techniques.

You are a complete inversions beginner or you have been practicing inversions for some time with no success.

After the course, you will know...

The theory fundamentals of the headstand, forearm stand, and handstand (correct alignment and body engagement, finding and understanding balance, different ways to enter and practice the inversion).
How to overcome fear of getting upside down.
How to fall out of an inversion in a safe way.
How to build strength so that you can support your body in an inverted position.
How to increase your range of motion so that you feel more freedom in your body and can get upside down easier.
Headstand techniques (kick up, press up, tripod headstand).
Forearm stand techniques (kick up, straight forearm stand, stag leg variation, puppy press, hollowback, scorpion).
Handstand techniques (kick up, stag leg/ tuck/straddle/straight handstand variations, puppy press).
Recovery and restorative exercises.

What TSOI students have to say

The School of Inversions course was a very rewarding experience for me, during and after the course. Staying committed to the practice, learning, trying and of course also failing at things made me physically stronger, feel more confident and brought me awareness over my body and what it is able to do. It also taught me to be patient. Trying new things and eventually catching some time „flying“ in a forearm stand or handstand can feel so good and fun! I think this course is a great way either to take up the journey with inversions or to get deeper into it since it lasts over some time and therefore gives you time to practice, process and stay connected as well as motivated with the other participants. 🙂

The School of Inversions with Sara help me to grow in my practice physically with all the strength exercises. And also with a better comprehension of the body in the different inversions postures / arm balance postures. It also helped me with my fear of falling in pincha and also in handstand because we do a lot of exercises that give us some tips to fall (if we fall) in a safe place. Even in an online class. I loved this experience and I recommend it because these two teachers are very complementary and it helps a lot to understand all the different techniques for inversion.

The School of Inversions course with Sára and Tom was very valuable as I got a lot of advice and learned many new exercises to improve my balance being upside down. The course was good for any level, because everything was really well explained and demonstrated. We learned everything important step by step, including learning how to fall out of inversions, which was scary at first but very useful later. I also really appreciated the chance to get feedbacks on my videos throughout the entire course. Sára and Tom were always super nice and the entire course was very helpful and fun at the same time. I definitely recommend it!

the course framework

Each week we will guide you systematically through a series of strength and mobility exercises, inversion technique drills, warm-ups, and cooldown movements as well as restorative flows.

Set your intentions, get to know the community, and learn how to get the most out of the course. We’ll also talk about the importance of strength, flexibility, mindset, and the correct work-rest ratio for your inversion practice.

To dive right in, the first week of the program will get you familiar with the fundamentals of everything we'll learn in the following weeks. We will talk about the handstand basics, learn how to balance on our hands in the crow pose, and explore how to get comfortable in an inverted position as we learn the headstand.

Building on what we’ve learned the week before, in week 2, we will continue working on the headstand and learn some new variations, explore how to safely fall out of a handstand, and get stronger with a set of strength drills.

Week three will challenge you further with a forearm stand. With drills specifically designed to prepare you for a forearm stand, you can begin to build up more strength in your shoulders, which will boost your overall inversion practice. Apart from that, you’ll also get introduced to animal flow to gain even more confidence going upside down.

Week four will be mostly strength-based. We will begin to work on pressing up into the inverted positions and create more awareness and coordination throughout the entire body. Learning to get into and out of an upside-down position in a slow and controlled way will solidify your inversions.

The final week of this program will wrap up everything we have learned so far and leave you with some fun variations to work on once the program is over. I’m talking about the hollow back shape that will further open and strengthen your shoulders, as well as the scorpion pose which works deeper into the backbends.

What's included?

25 follow-along inversion theory and practice classes will explain you the theory and then put it into practice what will result in progress over time.

2 meditations will help you to get closer to your goals with the power of your mind. If you can dream it, you can achieve it!

2 mobility classes will help you to increase your range of motion which will allow you to progress in your inversion practice faster.

2 restorative classes will help your body to recover, get rid of stiffness in your joints and muscles, work deeper into your connective tissue and soothe your nervous system and mind with these relaxing sessions.
