If you’ve ever said, “I want to get my handstand one day,” this is where that day starts.

Inversions aren’t about throwing yourself upside down and hoping for the best. They require shoulder strength, core control, alignment awareness and proper technique. Most people skip the foundations. That’s why they get stuck.

This 4-week progressive series is built to change that.

Across four structured 2-hour workshops, you’ll develop:

• Wrist and shoulder preparation specific to weight-bearing
• Core engagement and body line awareness
• Safe wall drills and entry techniques
• Forearm stand (Pincha Mayurasana) foundations
• Handstand fundamentals
• Supported headstand variations
• How to fall safely and build confidence
• Partner spotting and intelligent progressions

Each week builds on the last. This isn’t random drills. It’s a clear pathway from groundwork to lift-off.

Suzie Q brings over 20 years of experience in yoga, aerial, pole, Pilates and circus arts. Her teaching is technical, strong and safety-focused. You’ll understand what you’re doing and why — not just be told to “kick harder.”

Beginner friendly. Challenging enough to grow. Structured enough to see real progress.

If you miss a session, a recording will be available on the Kaya Academy online platform within 48 hours so you can review and continue building.

Four weeks. Consistency. Real skill development.

If you’re ready to stop circling around inversions and start building them properly, secure your spot now.

Meditation isn’t about clearing your mind or trying to stop your thoughts.

It’s about learning how to relate to your inner world with more awareness, steadiness and curiosity.

This 4-week meditation series is designed to help you build a grounded and sustainable practice that fits into real life. Rather than focusing on one rigid method, this series explores different approaches so you can discover what works for you.

Across four guided sessions, you’ll explore:

• Breath-based awareness
• Body-based meditation practices
• Working skillfully with thoughts and emotions
• Reflective inquiry and contemplative philosophy
• Attention training and present-moment awareness
• Practical ways to integrate meditation into daily life

Each week includes guided meditation, quiet sitting, reflection and space for discussion. You’ll leave with both experience and understanding — not just instructions.

Karen has been exploring contemplative philosophy since she was sixteen and facilitating meditation professionally since 2007, both in Australia and internationally. With a background in psychotherapy and yoga, she creates environments that are intellectually engaging, emotionally safe and deeply supportive.

Beginner friendly. Experienced practitioners welcome.

This is not a teacher training. It’s a practice container. However, yoga teachers and space holders will naturally deepen their understanding of silence, presence and the inner landscape.

If you miss a session, every class is recorded and uploaded to the Kaya Academy online platform within 48 hours, so you can revisit the practices in your own time.
