Hi y’all!
Wow. thank you so much for all the advice. Well, i’m happy to say that i can finally do the cross-knee release. I think my first 2 problems were the fear of falling back and the immense pain between my thighs. However, just like learning pole sit, i think my thighs just got used to the pain so it doesn’t hurt anymore. Also, i practiced very low to the ground with lots of pillows!!
I still can’t do the cross ankle release, but i can pull-up from handstand to cross ankle…go figure!
Good luck to those that are still trying to conquer the cross-knee/ankle relase….You can do it!!!
