Shoulderstand (using wall)
BASICS & FUNDAMENTALS • 20m
Take things upside down (especially if everything feels upside down right now)! Learn how to safely practice these inversions. We begin with legs up the wall and then venture into shoulderstand, first via the wall, and then from the middle of the room. Shoulderstand, or any inversion, helps with circulation, is a natural anti-depressant (boosting seratonin in your brain), and helps with leg swelling and restless leg syndrome. Please note: We don't use blankets in this video, as I don't really believe in them for shoulderstand. Feel free to use them, however, if you have been instructed how to use them. Enjoy the unwind! :)
