Yoga has a ton of hand balances - even downward facing dog is a hand balance! So how do we effectively and safely work to use our hands to be weight bearing? In this video, I share two of my favorite active stretching preps for hand balances, as well as one keep strategy I use to help my students create stability from their hand to their shoulder. We alos look at a couple of more passive stretches with which to close class.
Not only are these strategies great for hand balancing, they're also just excellent to give our hands and wrists some love after typing and texting all day!

I can't express how much ALL of your videos have helped me understand practically. You articulate your knowledge beautifully. I do have a request for a sanskrit pronunciation (maybe start with just the asanas) video/series. There are limited resources for this, and I think you could help us effectively 😊

Christa, I am so flattered that you think I can pronounce Sanskrit!! The truth is is not my strong suit, BUT I have a Sanskrit course in my to do list…if I become proficient I will definitely share!! 💛

Rachel, thank you so much! Amazing video and so in depth:))! I'll have to rewatch it a few times so I could better explain things to my students. Your channel has honestly been the best free resource available to me as a newer yoga teacher. Keep up the good work!

This has helped me so much in side plank! I believe you mentioned this “pickle jar” method in a DYWM class I took, and it has made a big difference for me. As always, thanks for these great videos!

All hail the amazing pickle jar!! 😁 I’m not sure why it has to be a pickle jar - rather than, say, peanut butter- but for some reason it does 😂

Hi Rachel, great video. Will you be doing videos on backbends?

Tom, I sure can - I've got a couple out there on wheel. What in particular are you interested in? (Muscles, tips for doing safely, general overview)? Let me know, I'll put it out there ;)
