Building Shoulderstand: Develop Control & Confidence for Salamba Sarvangasana
When you first come to yoga class, working up into shoulderstand can be challenging.
That could be for any number of reasons. Maybe it’s a long time since you’ve been upside down and you’re a little bit nervous.
Or maybe you’re working with pain or injury in the neck or the shoulder. The fear of that pain coming back can make moving into a position like shoulderstand, where you’re balanced on your shoulders and the neck feels vulnerable, really difficult.
In the video below, we start our journey to shoulderstand with one of the best yoga postures, Viparita Karani (legs up the wall). We then move on to other ways you can start to work up into shoulderstand that don’t rely on momentum. Ways that can help you build your confidence and feel more comfortable and in control.
