Salamba Sarvangasana (Shoulderstand) Stage One Tutorial

In this Iyengar-style tutorial of sarvangasana (shoulderstand) you’ll learn a couple of different ways to approach this classic inversion. This is a fully supported version of the pose, where you’ll use stacks of blankets, a couple of blocks (or a bolster), a chair, and a strap to progress into this pose with a solid foundation and alignment. *If you don’t have a chair available, you can also use a wall, a bench, or even a coffee table for support.

Props: 3 blankets, block or bolster, chair, bench, or wall
