Twists, Side Bends & Inversions
Friday, May 3rd, 6:00PM-8:00PM
We start the weekend with one of the most unique and original workshops. When we improve this kind of flexibility and strengthen our spine, all our practice takes a leap forward, including Handstands. Anatomically, we’ll pay special attention to the spine, neck, shoulder internal rotation and adductors. We’ll find new stability points and increase the role of the upper body with fun arm balances and upside down time.
For Handstand Lovers
Saturday, May 4th, 12:00PM-2:00PM
One of the most popular workshops, it includes a thorough warm up for shoulders, elbows and wrists, as well as deep abdominal work, gluts & leg activation. For alignment drills, with and without weight, we will alternate between wall and floor to not overload upper body but still reprogram nervous system. We will also work on resistance training, several kinds of jumps and entries into Handstands, eliminate bad habits and Q&A at the end. Not to be missed! Though for all levels, this workshop is ideal for those that can already jump into Handstands against a wall.
Hip openers: from Pigeon to Eka Pada Sirsasana
Saturday, May 4th, 2:30PM-4:30PM
This workshop will cover both external and internal hip rotation (ER/IR) while protecting knees, ankles and sacroiliac joints. Leg strengthening poses, squats, arm balances and a few inversions are a few of the postures we’ll play with. We’ll progressively reach deeper hip openers like “leg behind the head” (Eka Pada Sirsasana), cover other alternatives, best practices, specific mobility drills and tips to enjoy this family of poses that’s often neglected. Energetically, you’ll leave more connected to the amazing power of your hips.
Meditations with Moises: The new Earth
Saturday, May 4th, 5:00PM-7:00PM
Meditations for a new mindset. How to let new energies and experiences come into your life (part I).
Meditations with Moises: The New YOU
Sunday, May 5th, 5:00PM-7:00PM
Meditations for a new mindset. How to let new energies and experiences come into your life (part II).
Breathwork Study And Practicum
Sunday, May 5th, 2:30PM-4:30PM
This workshop will cover from the more classical pranayamas, to newer techniques of hyper/hipo ventilation (Wim Hof, Buteyko etc). We’ll talk about the nervous system and how the vagus nerve is the conductor of this orchestra. We’ll start with some anatomy and theory of the respiratory system, then dive into different breathing techniques, so that we can experiment them firsthand and feel how they transform us on different layers. This workshop is for all levels but not recommendable for pregnant women.
Backbends: Making Kapotasana Accesible For Everyone
Sunday, May 5th, 12:00PM-2:00PM
This workshop will break down one of the most intimidating backbends in smaller, more manageable pieces. If backbends are not your jam, this class is for you! Especial attention will be paid to increasing shoulder flexion, while stabilizing this joint. We’ll also cover in depth a correct spinal segmentation, focusing on curving & isolating t-spine, as well as understanding the important role of the deeper abs (TVA), obliques and pelvic floor. Expect a careful warm up, lots of isolated drills to incorporate into your routine, plenty of options to play with, and a few fun inversions. Lots of info packed into this one!
YTT MODULE
May 6th, Mon to May 11th, Sat
AUSTIN, TX
This 50hr YTT MODULE is a most unique experience because of its focus and practicality. Besides a DAILY 90-MIN PRACTICE with Carmen, the rest of the hours will be solely dedicated to HANDS-ON ADJUSTMENTS as well as HOW TO TEACH HANDSTANDS from beginners to advanced hand balancers.
Highlights of what we’ll be covering are:
-
DAILY YOGA CLASSES with a different theme and peak poses;
-
Dozens of assists and ANATOMICAL EXPLANATIONS for backbends, hip openers, spinal rotations, lateral flexions, arm balances and all inversions;
-
Precise exercises to INCREASE ROM along thoracic spine & promote correct segmentation;
-
Specific upper body work to increase SHOULDER CIRCUMDUCTION (for all kind of asanas) and power (for Handstands and arm balances);
-
Correct WRISTS & ELBOWS’ manipulation for Handstands;
-
Tapping into the ABS POWER, especially TVA, obliques & psoas;
-
Daily sessions dedicated extensively to HANDSTANDS THEORY, alignment, anatomy, as well as dozens of DRILLS, from the most fundamental ones to others more specific, depending on the student’s level and personal difficulties.
Doing handstands is not the same as being able to teach handstands. Doing deep backbends is not the same as being able to break them down and safely assist students into them, and that’s why this training IS NOT TO BE MISSED!
This is a once-a-year-opportunity (if that!) and is geared towards teachers and practitioners that want to DEEPEN THEIR KNOWLEDGE about anatomy, know how to give great adjustments and have a clear path on how to advance in the endless Handstand ocean of drills and tips.
For those looking to complete a 200 OR 300 HR YTT with me, this is the first module for it.
Hours can also be used towards CE credits for teachers.

Ajustes para arcos y torsiones, 13:30-15:30

Ajustes para invertidas y fuerza, 16:00-18:00
Los ajustes de invertidas requieren por parte del ajustador que el contacto con el alumno sea sutil para poder notar donde está el punto de equilibrio y al mismo tiempo transmitan una sensación de seguridad para que el alumno tenga confianza y no entre en pánico.

Adjustments Clinic: Hips, Splits and Related Arm Balances
Friday, Sep 6th, 16:00-18:30
After a progressive warm up and some theory on the lower body, we’ll not only explore adjustments on a number of hip-related asanas, but we’ll also study a number of modifications to both progress and regress them, depending on where the student is at. We’ll also cover the do’s and dont’s, main issues people have, and how to turn a hip opening practice from a dreading to a dreaming experience! This workshop could be taken alone but, ideally, in conjunction with Sunday’s second session.
Yoga class: External & Internal Hip Rotations, Practical Applications & Inversions

Yoga class: Twists, Lateral Flexions & Inversions
Saturday, Sep 7th, 11:00-13:00
When we improve our flexibility and strength in the spine for twists and side bends, the rest of our practice also takes a leap.

Saturday, Sep 7th, 14:00-16:30
This is one of the most popular workshops that includes a detailed warm up for shoulders, elbows, wrists, as well as abdominal work, gluts & legs activation, alignment drills (both on the floor & at the wall), resistance training, different kinds of jumps, analysis, bad habits and Q&As. Not to be missed! Though for all levels, this workshop is ideal for those that can already jump into Handstand at the wall.
Yoga class: Changing Our Perception of Backbends
Sunday, Sep 8th, 11:00-13:00
This class will cover a correct spinal segmentation, how to arch the thoracic portion and understand the important rol of the abs, TVA and pelvic floor. We’ll also cover how to protect the shoulders while increasing range, as well as how to strengthen and release hip flexors. We’ll tie all of that together with some peak poses like Scorpions and variations of Eka Pada Rajakapotasana. If backbends are not your jam, this class is for you!
Adjustments for Backbends & related inversions
Sunday, Sep 8th, 14:00-16:30
After a progressive warm up and some theory on the upper body, we’ll explore the intricacies of backbend assists, the delicate dance between the spine, shoulders and flexors, as well as how to both strengthen and stretch them safely. We’ll also cover active & passive ranges, adjustments for both and how to make backbend classes less intimidating and more liberating. This workshop could be taken alone but, ideally, in conjunction with Friday’s first session.

Masterclass: Twists, side bends & inversions
Thursday, Sep 19th, 6:30pm-9pm
We’ll kick off the weekend with one of the most unique workshops. Improving spine’s flexibility and strength for twists & side bends, will make the rest of our practice take a leap as well. Some of this class’ targets will be: longer lats, stronger QL and gluteals, proper TFL firing and some upside down time to put it all together. We’ll find new stability points to rotate around, discover multiple floor drills and find strength in funky arm balances & inversions.
Masterclass: Backbends, Finding more thoracic movement, shoulder flexion & lumbar support
Friday, Sep 20th, 9:00am-11:30am
This workshop will heavily focus on proper spinal segmentation, understanding the role of the scapulas as well as low abs, TVA, hip flexors & psoas in particular. Expect for some isolated moves before putting things together. If your mid back feels ‘rigid’, your low back or shoulders ‘hurt’, or you ‘can’t find’ your abs when you do backbends, this class is for you!
Sequencing
Friday, Sep 20th, 11:30am -1:00pm
This workshop will cover how to sequence to prepare the body for new & creative asanas in a safe way. It’ll cover the principles and best practices, as well as some of the common errors and misconceptions when it comes to create a flow. It’ll also teach how to smoothly introduce mobility drills to create unique and memorable sequences. Ideal for teachers and those looking to deepen their knowledge about the human body and how it should move.
Adjustments
Friday, Sep 20th, 1:30pm-4:30pm
In this 3hr workshop we’ll cover: the fundamentals of adjustments that’ll solve most students’ problems, how to find subtlety and have a ‘conversation’ with someone’s body, know how far to take things, what to prioritize and how to position yourself for flexibility adjustments versus balancing ones. Lots of valuable information for teachers and those wanting to understand what to look for in a wide number of asanas. Ideal to take it in combo with the Asana clinic session.
Masterclass: Hip openers, Unlocked & Happy Hips
Saturday, Sep 21st, 9:00am-11:30am
During this workshop we’ll work the necessary elements to mobilize the hips in an organic, active and safe way, protecting knees and ankles while involving some of the strongest muscles of the body (gluts, quads, hamstrings…). We’ll improve both external and internal rotations while exploring postures like Yogidandasana, squats, arm balances and inversions. If you thought hip openers aren’t for you, or you find them tedious, this is your chance to find out otherwise!
Asana Clinic
Saturday, Sep 21st, 11:30am -1:00pm
A one-of-a-kind workshop were we’ll discuss how the physical, energetic and emotional bodies interconnect in a number of asanas and how to help students realize their full potential. We’ll take a look (and practice) several postures: how to adapt them for individual needs, why they look different on different bodies, alignment pillars, do’s and dont’s, and much more. Perfect for those looking to develop a sharp eye as a teacher or avid practitioner. Ideal to take it in combination with the Adjustments session from the day before.
Yoga as a career
Saturday, Sep 21st, 1:30pm-4:30pm
To wrap up the weekend, Carmen will talk about her 25-year yoga career, the different options and stages to take, how to use modern tools, like social media, to carve your own path, have a business plan and how to balance all that with a consistent yoga practice. During the last part of the session she’ll cover some pranayamas, from the more classic ones, to hyper & hypo ventilation (Wim Hof, Buteyko) as well as the role of the nervous system and vagus nerve.

Yoga: Inversions and Side Flexions
Thursday, Oct 10th
This workshop will focus on lateral flexion (side bends), and how to improve your range to have better inversions and arm balances. Side bending is the least practiced spinal move. Flexion (forward bends) and extension (backbends) are far more common, yet improving side bends will support both, and take your practice to a new level. We’ll work on connecting with the ‘belt’ between ribcage and hips (lats, QL, obliques, transverse abs and rectus abdomini), gain freedom of movement and discover new stability points for Handstand and Pincha Mayurasana. Very interesting and unique poses will be covered!
Training: Creative cYoga sequencing, part I
Thursday, Oct 10th
In this workshop we’ll uncover some of the secrets of cYoga’s intelligent and creative sequencing, so not only will you feel ready to tackle tougher asanas, but also learn to incorporate specific mobility drills, apply static/dynamic stabilization connections and create new neuromuscular pathways. You’ll discover how to progressively gain control, freedom and stability of your movement, as well as minimizing soreness the next day. A must for teachers or those looking to deepen their knowledge about the human body and its functionalities.
Yoga: Active Hip Openers
Friday, Oct 11th
Often, hip openers are taught too statically, with no breath emphasis or flow, but there’s a lot of room for exploration, movement and active strengthening that can enhance the difficult process of “unlocking the hips”. This workshop will cover various elements to articulate and actively release the hips, while preserving the integrity of other lower joints, like knees or ankles. We will dive into postures like Eka Pada Sirsasana, Yogidandasana, squats, arm balances or linking those with inversions. Everyone hits a wall, so this workshop is relevant to all levels.
Training: Creative cYoga sequencing, part II
Friday, Oct 11th
In this workshop we’ll continue to uncover some of the the secrets of cYoga’s intelligent sequencing and how to spark your imagination to create new asanas as well as new neuro pathways. Ideally it should be taken with part 1, as we will build on the concepts covered the previous day.
Effortless Handstands: Alignment, Drills & Floats
Saturday, Oct 12th
This very thorough and comprehensive workshop is filled with information and drills on how to open your shoulders to have a real straight line, how to lock ribcage and pelvis, engage legs and be able to balance. We’ll also cover compression and dissociation exercises to be able to press into Handstand, work on the “negatives” (coming down slowly from Handstand), and we’ll play with different leg shapes to improve strength and balancing skills. Come ready to spend time upside down, do floor conditioning and lots of abs!
Training: cYoga Adjustments and Asana Clinic, part I
Saturday, Oct 12th
During these clinics we will learn how to approach hands-on adjustments safely and efficiently, as well as carefully dissecting dozens of asanas to understand its mechanics and how they reflect on a variety of bodies. This workshop is extremely practical, having the students work with one another, while we discuss best practices, special cases, and learn to individualize the poses for each body. While this workshop is geared toward teachers, you do not have to be one to attend. Teacher or not, it will amplify your skill set. (Different information will be covered in Session 1 and Session 2. You can take one, but it’s encouraged to do both, as concepts will build up).
Yoga: Hip Flexors, Psoas and Abs’ Role for Backbends
Sunday, Oct 13th
Carmen is known for helping her students find space in their backbends, go deeper than ever, without any discomfort. In this workshop we will: (1) work on shoulder mobility, respecting the integrity of that joint; (2) bend thoracic spine in conjunction with cervical extension and lumbar strengthening, (3) activate and lengthen hip flexors, analyzing the role of the abdominal wall, obliques, gluts and the relationship between pelvis and spine. This workshop is for everyone but highly recommended if you usually run into low back compression or lack of strength. You’ll gain important insights into which part of your anatomy may need to readjust to move forward in your backbend journey.
Training: cYoga Adjustments and Asana Clinic, part II
Sunday, Oct 13th
During these clinics we will continue to approach hands-on adjustments safely and efficiently, carefully dissecting dozens of asanas to understand its mechanics and how they reflect on a variety of bodies. We’ll continue to discuss best practices, special cases, and learn to individualize the poses for each person. Geared toward teachers, but not a must. (Different information will be covered in Session 1 and Session 2. You can take one, but it’s encouraged to do both, as concepts will build up).

Yoga: Finding Strength and Space in Sidebends & Twists
Friday, Oct 18th
In this workshop we’ll work on the 2 less known spinal moves: lateral flexion and rotation. Developing a strong lateral flexion will allow us to have more steady inversions, solid arm balances and stronger core & lumbar area. More degrees to rotate in the spine will translate into easier back and forward folds, better breathing patterns and a calmer nervous system. One of the most unique workshops offered, where we will explore moves & ranges we don't usually practice, as well as asanas that may be more unknown. Anatomically, we’ll pay extra attention to the spine, lats, QL, obliques, transverse abs, adductors and hip flexors. Not to miss!
Handstand Playground: Jumps & Lines
Saturday, Oct 19th
Spectacular workshop filled with information on how to achieve that most desired 'straight line’ and how to consistently nail your jumps. Concepts like optimum shoulder/ribcage/pelvis position, what to pay attention to, how to dissociate legs from shoulders without falling, and much more, will be covered in depth. Although it is for all levels, this workshop is perfect for those that can already kick into Handstand at the wall, as well as those working on different leg shapes, or those on their quest to open their shoulders further. Come ready to get upside down, do floor conditioning, drills and lots of abs!
Yoga: Bendy backbends for all
Saturday, Oct 19th
This workshop will cover in depth some of the elements that people feel stuck with: (1) lack of movement along thoracic spine, (2) lack of strength in the lumbar and cervical area, (3) lack of stability or pain in the shoulders. Understanding how each part moves and integrates with the rest, is crucial to deepen, and enjoy, backbending properly. Although we’ll cover some theory, this workshop is mostly practical, where we’ll use props like the wall, blocks and bands, to understand and refine movements. You’ll walk out with a lot of tools to apply right away into your backbend practice.
Yoga: Active Hip Openers
Sunday, Oct 20th
In this workshop we will work on the necessary elements to articulate the hips in an active and safe way, protecting knees and ankles, while taking advantage of some of the largest muscles in the body (gluts, quads, hamstrings, obliques…) We will improve both external and internal hip rotation, exploring poses like Yogidandasana, Eka Pada Sirsasana, Padmasana and squats. We’ll also combine arm balances and inversions with those asanas. 2 amazing hours to unlock the lower body to make you feel strong and connected with it!
More handstands: Lifts, Presses and Abs
Sunday, Oct 20th
A continuation to the first Handstand workshop, we’ll carry on where we left things at. In this one we’ll focus on lighter lifts, hollow low back, scapular protraction and leg activation to, eventually, press in and out of Handstand. As with the first one, expect lots of time upside down, floor conditioning, drills to improve proprioception and some more abs!! You'll also leave with a clear path on how to keep growing your inversion practice. (Note: this workshop is not required to be taken with the other Handstand one, but it’s highly recommended as concepts will build up).
