Basic Yoga - Hand Stand

Mindy Piland: Hello! My name is Mindy Piland and I am going to take through a step-by-step process of a perfect headstand. Coming down under your forearms, taking your opposite hands to opposite elbow, measuring the distance between your arms, interlacing your fingers, you want to crown up your head in your hands, so your hairline comes down to the mat on your pinky fingers, okay. Now, elbows stayed glued to the mat, just coming up on to the balls of your feet, lifting your hips over your shoulders, so, that as far over as you can get with your hips the better.

Mindy Piland: Hello! My name is Mindy Piland and I am going to take through a step-by-step process of a perfect headstand. Coming down under your forearms, taking your opposite hands to opposite elbow, measuring the distance between your arms, interlacing your fingers, you want to crown up your head in your hands, so your hairline comes down to the mat on your pinky fingers, okay. Now, elbows stayed glued to the mat, just coming up on to the balls of your feet, lifting your hips over your shoulders, so, that as far over as you can get with your hips the better. Okay, fixating your eyes on one point, lifting your feet up, using your belly, so holding it here so that feel the strength in your core holding your body up. And then slowly lifting up with your legs and holding it here and if you are doing this correctly, you can hold this pose for hours. If you ve got your head placed on the mat, your shoulders are lifted up out of your arms, so as not to put any pressure on your spine and when coming out of it, you can send your hips back, as we come forward or you can just drop down either way, okay.

Well, another inversion is come down on to your back and moving into Shoulder Stand, so your hands come underneath your sacrum lifting up high and then you can go on to paw pose and release. Okay, thank you.
