Girl you are amazing! My pole is down right now because my house is getting painted,but I can definately work on this,the beginning stages that is! LOL
I’ve got more floorwork on the way too 🙂
This was so incredible! I’m gonna work on it tonight, thank you V!!!!
Love it!!!!!!!!!!!
awesome!
I like this better than the shoulder stand (which looks awkward to me). I will def. be working on this.
Ty!
Oh my! Is this a little hard on the wrist? I’m able to lift up a little bit, but instead of arms tired, wrists feels weird.
This is an advanced floor move, so I strongly suggest using the conditioning lessons for the hands and wrists before moving on to this. Also you should be using the fingers to push as well and not just the palm of the hand. Also be sure the fingers are facing out to the sides of the body not forward.
ah….! I think that’s it! Facing out and not forward! I LUV LUV your lessons!
You make everything look so darn easy!
Love love love this! I just have one question: how should I adjust my positioning so my elbows don’t end up in my boobs? I have the strength to lift it, but it feels like I’m getting a mammogram …lol!
Really lift the whole body up before moving onto the elbows. The elbows should be down low on the abs close to the hips not the ribs.
Oh. Yeah. Much better! For a minute there I thought I needed a better bra 😉 Also, I don’t know if I’m correct in saying this, but, when I bring my palms up off the floor and push through my fingertips, I feel less strain on my wrists.
yup your right Hotelchick, that’s why you need to spread the fingers wide…same goes for handstand work.
I love this! your progressions are terrific, and this is a great example of something I wouldn’t have bothered to try, but I see there are intermediate positions that are within my grasp. Gotta try!
Love this! gonna start working on this one. this is a really good move to combine with floorwork. especially starting from the split position.
I cannot get up Veena. Does your hip rest on your both elbows? If that’s the case I can’t get them to the hip and I find it impossible to close my arms together and let the forearm meet together when they are extended. I can balance on one elbow in a horizontal position though . What am I doing wrong?
Yes the both elbows are into the lower ab area. It would be easier to know what’s going wrong if you could post a vid.
I am surprised I could lift my legs off the floor for just half a second, but never would have if not for the great tips! It would be fun to keep working on this. 🙂
Holy cow! I just tried this the first time ever. Thankfully reading through the comments helped. I couldn’t extend my legs but I did get my body raised up of the floor. This is going on my practice/goal list. Will take progress update photos and post.

Thanks for sharing 💜
I can not do this with both elbows for some reason but can do it with one elbow in my hip and the other hand kind of outstretched to side… so weird. oh well, it’s a start. just the 2 elbow version is not working for me right now. haha!
I can see where one would be easier! No reason you can’t do it that way too!
I’m gonna play around with it and see what I come up with 🙂
Tried this today and was able to get my legs up on the first try:) I’m not sure they were all the way up or graceful though LOL!
