And then you switch work with our extended arms at the wall as means of both extending and rotating the spinal axis. Both set of exercises will increase your ability to extract wholesome strength and flexibility from these root postures. You’ll also work with Sarvangasana (Shoulderstand) and learn how to bring the weight of your body into your hands and arms instead of placing weighting your neck and head.
