    opps I never posted my Day 14 here! Here it is: http://instagram.com/p/x226CyjLNv

    This was surprisingly hard on static!

    Its almost 10:00 and I’m going to try and quickly fit in my Day 15 in the next half hour or so. My husband is sick with the flu (ugh! he had the flu shot too. he is on tamiflu though, so hoping it passes quickly and we all don’t get it) but I’ve been doing mommy duty to a kid and a puppy so I’m exhausted.. 🙂

    Ok day 15: http://instagram.com/p/x5okR9jLD_

    It’s late and my flu filled husband is quarantine in our bedroom… So here a quick back bend slide! I’m afraid if I don’t do each day I’ll fall behind and quit. So I’m trying to do each day on time. I wish I put more time into some of the days 🙁

    Day 17! Elbowstand. I really, really adore these and it was really hard for me to keep it simple for the challenge lol http://instagram.com/p/x75tJ1pAdm/

    I’m super happy to say I recently uploaded a NEW lesson for this so please check it out, I think you’ll find it helpful. Keep in mind this is not the more advanced forearmstand where the head is off the floor. https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/54b6ab93-39ec-49ff-8395-6d000a9aa0eb

    Not sure what happened to15!!!! Backbend Slide. http://instagram.com/p/x2sqwxpAY2/ I think it may have been a crazy day and I totally forgot, I post just before we eat our dinner 🍝

    Here is the lesson for everyone! Take note of the use of side pole hold, using his hold will help you build strength https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/52f65911-1754-4d20-9d87-7fb20a9aa0eb

    Day 18! Leg Show 💃 http://instagram.com/p/x-bhpppAca/

    This is a great way to strengthen the lower body, abs and legs, when done correctly. Also wearing heels make your legs look longer 👠 Here is the lesson https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/532a5e85-bbb4-4b62-96b8-2f4d0a9aa0eb

    Day 17. http://instagram.com/p/x-lz3cDLEM/

    I’m not great at these… And it would have made the most pathetic and boring video ever so I just posted a pic.

    I feel like I’m getting better… But my back is really hollowed… And it looks bad. I feel like I’m doing something wrong. I watched the new lessons while back (very helpful btw) but didn’t have a chance to rewatch today. It’s on my to do list. Oh well.

    As you learn to engage your core more the back will flatten out. Being aware of it is great, many times a person doesn’t notice. 👍

    Ok, thanks Veena! I figured it was core strength. I was trying to engage but I think I was focused on balancing at that point.

    I can’t see In the mirror when I’m that low. I think I’m going to use my computer or another mirror next time so I can make some real time adjustments. 🙂

    AK : You can do elbow stand without the support of the pole! I’m impressed. 🙂 When I can do that it will be a breakthrough.

    Thanks Caz! I didn’t like press up without the pole. I still used it…. Then slowly tried to balance without it. Little by little. And I had a second or two where I did!
