How to Headstand

Toppling out of headstand is one of my first memories of yoga. The only real instruction I was given was to interlock my fingers, put my elbows on the ground and just try.

I can still remember my first attempt to do a headstand without a wall. it was in a traditional Mysore Style self practice class. The teachers and assistants really helped people in the closing postures, of which headstand is one. There were no available walls, so I decided to give it a try. If there was one thing about me, it was that I was not afraid to fall. So, as I set my arms and hands in position, I faced the great obstacle of lifting my legs and hips up into the air. I kicked up with so much force that there was no option other than to land all the way over in a backbend. Seeing as I didn’t hurt myself, but confused as to why I wasn’t in a headstand, I tried again. And again. And again. A year later I managed to find a balance.
