Essentials of Forearm Stand with Elisa Tam

ABOUT

Pincha Myurasana (Forearm Stand), is both an arm balance and an inversion posture. Unlike headstand where there is a triangular base from the arms, shoulders along with the head. In forearm stand, the head remains off the ground as the arms are bent at a ninety-degree in an overhead position. To perform this pose safely and correctly, mobility and strength on the upper body are equally important.

 

Expanding upon our foundational understanding of the basic headstand:

  • Students will gain a deeper knowledge of the anatomy involved in the forearm stand.
  • By exploring different variations of the forearm stand, students will gain insight into their individual physical abilities, such as limitations, imbalances, strengths, and weaknesses, which enables them to practice forearm stand with greater awareness, therefore minimizing the risk of injury.
  • Utilizing props to enhance mobility and strength in specific areas of the body, while also addressing any misalignments.
  • Learning how to FALL!!! Mastering how to safely exit a forearm stand reduces risk of injury and increases students’ confidence to practice independently, away from the wall.
