Peak Pose: Scorpion

This peak-pose sequence is designed to prepare you for a supported variation of scorpion pose, which you'll do at the wall. Class begins with upper-body and back-body preparation and a progressive practice of bow pose. After that, you'll stretch your quads and hip flexors with a reclining hero pose variation before moving to the wall for the peak-pose experience. Be sure to prepare with a quick warm-up of your choice—a few sun salutations might do the trick!
