"Hi! My name is Leta Koontz and I'm a yoga instructor at Schoolhouse Yoga in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I'm here today on behalf of Expert Village to teach you some arm balances. Okay, we're going to come back into the arm pressure pose where we bring our hands behind us and we cross our right ankle on top of our left. Make sure you're really keeping your belly pulled in here going into this next pose. You're going to keep your feet crossed. When your feet get about half way in, turn them to a point, keep your feet off the floor, and see if you can drop your head to the floor. Here's what the pose looks like from the side. Again, your hands are shoulder distance. Resting the thighs on top of the upper arms, crossing the feet. Again, the feet are going to stay until they flex and when you get about half way, you're going to point. Keep the belly pulled in. See if you can keep your feet off the floor as you drop your head to the floor."
