Sometimes just being still and finding your breath is all that matters. . . #yoga #yogabreath #pranayama #menofyoga #yogadudes #breathing #stillness (at Blackheath, London) https://www.instagram.com/p/CH3D1gdDAic/?igshid=16xay0m0rycgh

Another still from an on-line class. A deeper variation of #sideanglepose or #extendedsideangle working on the straight line from heel to fingertip whist keeping the torso open to the side. #yoga #menofyoga #yogaforguys #instayogi #smile (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-_-TTXjDn-/?igshid=j8fdfsyl9wwh

So there's always a load of shapes that you think "OK, that's not for me, I'm too old, I didn't do gymnastics as a kid, etc etc," so you forget about them until one day you do it by accident. #peacockpose, or #mayurasana, is one of those shapes. I did it by accident for the first time last Tuesday, and now I need to figure out how it happened and what to do next! Point is, never say never. #practiceandalliscoming #yogajourney #menofyoga #balance #strength #core (at Blackheath, London) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-Hd9yxjuxb/?igshid=85w3gyplnqsl

For those of you who've been wondering, my #handstand journey continues, albeit in the background. There's no rush, it's a #workinprogress that I'm taking #slowandsteady. #yoga #menofyoga #inversion #handbalance #strength #balance #practiceandalliscoming (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzsLj0pj0Ra/?igshid=1nhlym46u2drn

I’ve been doing a lot of side body core work recently (thank you @jason_crandell & @yogaglo) and working on a clean well supported “mid-line”. There’s so much more to ‘the core’ than some pretty bumps on your tummy: a huge and complex barrel of multilayered muscles that wrap around your whole body from ribs to pelvis. All of which are as important as the pretty ones if not more so. #yoga #yogabody #yogaforeveryone #menofyoga #sideplank #core #strength #balance #stability #alwayslearning #shirtlessandshameless #nomatrequired #myactualyoga #practiceandalliscoming (at Stockwell Playhouse) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnB48AxlKRB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19jekt6fsjud3

Time for another @giuseppe82m spectacular image. I don’t often do #headstand but when I do I put no weight on my head to protect my neck and I don’t stay up for very long. Doing it this way requires #upperbodystrength #focus #control and #balance. It’s an excellent shape to include occasionally in your #handstand journey, and I’ll be teaching you how to perform it safely in my #workshop on Sunday 5th August in #Stockwell. Link in bio or pm for details! #yoga #menofyoga #yogateacher (at Stockwell Playhouse)

As you know, I rarely practice #headstand variations because of the danger they pose for neck and spine injuries, but as part of the journey towards #handstand they do play a part. This is the very spot in Greenwich Park where at this precise moment I would usually be teaching my #parkyoga session, but today I’m on holiday! #yoga #headstand #handstand #inversion #upsidedown #menofyoga #mendoyoga #ittybittyshorts #yogainthepark #nomatrequired #greenwichpark #sunshine #photoshoot (at Greenwich Park)
