Want to Balance in Forearm Stand? A Yoga Sequence to Get You There

Now you're ready to tackle the final pose. If you're nervous about falling, move your mat in front of a wall.

• Come into Quarter Dog, and then move into Forearm Stand Split Pose with your right leg lifted. Once you're balancing with your legs in split position, slowly scissor them together, balancing with your feet above your hips in Forearm Stand. Tuck your tailbone and ribs in to help you stay balanced, and keep your arms parallel.
• After five breaths lower your feet into Quarter Dog Pose and try coming into this pose with the left leg lifted.
• Lower into Child's Pose and rest for five or more breaths.
