Ways to Drop Into Chaturanga From Handstand!!!

🦋If you're looking for ways to go from handstand to chaturanga, check this out. I've demoed three ways to do it -from "easiest" to "hardest" in my experience. Some people may find the tuck easier than the single leg version, if they have tight hamstrings. Hope you have fun trying these! Let me know what you think, are some easier for you than others?!🐶 . . 🦄KEY POINTS 1. We go over this point ALOT with handstands. Keeping hips up and over your hands is the key to balancing. Same applies here. The longer you can keep your hips over your hands, while bringing the rest of your body down, the more graceful and controlled your landing will be. This is because hips are the center of mass and where they go, rest of your body will follow. If you can get part of your body close to floor before moving hips away from being over hands, the more leverage you will have to find stability when your hips start coming down also. 2. On split leg version, try to split legs as wide as possible (bring descending leg as close to floor as you can) before bringing hips and other leg down. 3. On tuck version, try to keep hips high while you undo the tuck and bring legs down 4. On pike leg version, shift hips and shoulders more ahead of hands than usual to counterbalance the leg weight. Then bring legs down as far as you can before extending them back to chaturanga.🦄 . . #handstand365 #handstandtransitions #handstand #handstanding #handstandpractice #handstanddrills #yogatutorial #learnyoga #chaturanga #yogatransitions #vinyasaflowyoga #vinyasaflow #vinyasayoga #yogatips #doyouyoga #howtoyoga #handstandseverywhere #handstandnation #handstandgoals #yogagoals #yogagoals #yogainspo #yogainspiration #yogahandstand #ashtangavinyasa #adhomukhavrksasana #handstandlove #handstandjourney #sunsalutations #handstandfun 💃Follow us for more Color, Art and Yoga!🕺 . YOGA STUFF WE RECOMMEND!!!! Because of the questions we get about yoga products we use- here are some of our favorites. We like cork blocks over foam for most purposes. Here are the cork blocks we go for: JMB CORK YOGA BLOCKS https://amzn.to/2NEuqbH We recommend using a thick, sturdy mat for home practice to support wrists and hands in arm balances. The one shown here is a Manduka brand and I have had this mat over 10 years. Still a great mat. You can find it here: MANDUKA PRO YOGA MAT https://amzn.to/2zJR5ec And because of all the wonderful questions we’ve gotten on our Instagram about the most comfortable Yoga Clothes we recommend, Anne is wearing Mika Yoga Wear. They last a long time! Very durable for hot and non heated yoga.
