Headstand

Mastering a headstand usually takes time, so remember to have patience and also to have fun.

If you are comfortable in the headstand prep position, start to walk your feet in toward your body so that your hips line up over your shoulders and your back is straight.

Stay here for a few breaths. If you feel good, bend one knee in, bringing your heel to your hip.

Bring it back down and try the other leg. If you are steady with one leg, try both legs at the same time.

When your heels are pulled in toward your hips and you feel sturdy and stable, slowly extend your legs straight up.

Stay for twenty long, deep breaths. When you are ready to come down, slowly lower one leg at a time and rest in child’s pose for a few breaths.
