Shoulderstand

Hi everyone,

Here a little sequence to prepare the body for the shoulderstand, and I will talk you through the shoulderstand itself. Called the queen of the yoga poses, a very worthwile pose to practice a lot. I would still recommend doing this pose with a life instructor at least once for your alignment. Most important thing to remember though is to keep your neck safe, that is why you use the blanket! Bring your breastbone to your chin, but NOT your chin to your breastbone…

Some of the other poses I demonstrate here are

cow face pose arms / gomukhasana

eagle arms / garudasana

standing forward bend / uttanasana

bridge pose / setu bandha sarvangasana

supported shoulderstand / salamba sarvangasana

fish pose / matsyendrasana

enjoy this little sequence that you can do at the end of any yoga routine.
