Shoulder Stand: Inversion Tutorial

Review the Pose: Supported Shoulder Stand (Salamba Sarvangasana)

Alignment Cues-
*Pull the toes up towards the sky to lift the body UP rather than dump the body’s weight into your supporting hands.
*Tuck the tailbone, draw the belly button to the spine, and move the hips forward to engage the core.
*Position the chin toward the chest to encourage a long neck resting on the ground and move the gaze toward the navel.

This position always feels a bit cramped to me. If you’re like me, work on creating more space by pulling UP. Stay for a few rounds of breath before lowering down with control.
