Don’t forget to keep these three things in mind when getting into the pose:
– Use your fingers to help you find balance! Think CREEPY FINGERS as you grip your mat.
– Corset your low ribs together to help eliminate dumping into the lower back. It’s the same feeling you get when you catch a football!
– It’s all about the stack! Shoulders over the heels of the hands, hips over the shoulders, feet over the hips.
