Christine: Inversions

Inversions! I don’t know why but I am so bad at them. Crow, headstand, hand stand, etc. Everyone else seems to make it seem so easy but I’ve always had so much trouble with them….
Hence YTT. I really wanted to learn how to do inversions and figured YTT would be a great place to start. Prior to this, I’ve never successfully done any inversion.
So with each day introducing a new inversion pose, I’ve had so much fun learning and trying these poses. A few are:
  • Astavakrasana – eight angle pose
  • Teddy bear
  • Bakasana – crow
  • Baby crow
  • Salamba sirsasana – supported headstand
  • Adho mukha vrksasana – handstand
  • Salamba sarvangasana – supported shoulder stand
  • Pincha mayurasana – feathered peacock pose
In these past 4 months, I’ve become more confident and open to trying each pose. I’ve fallen each time and have bruises to show for it but feels great to at least try. Practice makes perfect 🙂
