Tips on how to do the viral shoulderstand balance. 👉

Have you tried this one yet? A fun way to challenge balance and mobility.🩶 Hello quad stretch 🔥🔥

✨Tips:
-hero pose meets shoulderstand…
to help with balance, keep one arm in supported shoulderstand and then grab one foot and GROUND ELBOW FIRST before grabbing other side. This helped me unlock the balance first. 🔓
-press feet into hands & hips up and away from body to align over torso.
-keep legs behind hips while grabbing each foot will help with balance
-expect to roll around with this one while practicing (make sure the space is clear around you)
-have fun and enjoy the journey ✨

⚠️ be mindful of have any neck sensitives/injuires (option to pad /fold towel blankets under upper back so not as much pressure on neck)

Team Crow or Team Scorpion?

I have to admit I’m guilty of trying cool things on here once and then never again 😂Anyone else?!

A few weeks back, I worked for a solid WEEK trying to get this viral windmill plank flip 🔥so wanted to make sure I could still do it 💀Happy to report didn’t take me as many failed attempts this time around 🙌 so yay for muscle memory.

Save and try these flows:
1. viral windmill plank flip → slide into headstand → lift up Pincha scorpion
2.. viral windmill plank flip → slide into headstand → lift up into funky flying crow /crow

Fun way to challenge core strength and mobility.

Hot tips 👇
- Think spiral legs up and over, not swing
- Lead with the arm on the side you are rolling over to
- Really lift hips up to gain that momentum to twist around (almost like you are rolling back and up like in a shoulderstand)
- Press the ground away to stay light
- Land with feet flexed so on ball of foot vs toes
- Pro tip: to start, practice on a soft surface with long sleeve shirt and sneakers if not sure about how the toes can’t handle the quick lower.
- Engage core as slide back then forward into pike headstand then press up and away into scorpion
⚠️ be mindful if have any low back injuries or neck sensitivities
