Mastering Pincha Mayurasana: 3 Tips for a Stable Forearm Stand
✨ Pincha Mayurasana (3 Key Points) ✨ How's your Pincha Mayurasana (forearm stand) coming along? Today, Yong and I break down three essential tips for this advanced inversion to help you build better alignment and stability!
🎯 Tip 1: Elbow and Hand Placement Beginners tend to let their elbows splay too wide. Keep them shoulder-width apart. If you're struggling to lift up, try bringing your palms slightly closer together, spread your fingers wide, and press firmly into the mat for a solid base.
🎯 Tip 2: Open Your Shoulders and Neck Don't let your shoulders and neck scrunch up. Draw your shoulder blades down, engage your serratus anterior, and feel the stable support that comes from proper shoulder activation.
🎯 Tip 3: Core and Glute Control Stop relying on your lower back to balance! Draw your belly in, fire up your glutes, and take the pressure off your lumbar spine -- this makes the whole pose much steadier.
