Rebecca - doing a variation of Dwi Pada Viparita Dandasana on a chair. Is there a name for this variation? This variation is a crazy, intense shoulder opener!
Urdhva Dhanurasana.
Very important: to extend the chest and lift the thighs, otherwise it is too much in my lower back.

Urdhva Dhanurasana. Rebecca's wheel is beautiful. Compare the two pictures and you can see how she really opens her chest in the top one. Also her knees are moving towards each other, which protects her lower back.
Variation of Dwi Pada Viparita Dandasana on a chair. Get up into headstand, put your feet against the wall and slowly work your way down to the chair. Open chest.
The block between the hands helps to keep the thumb side of the hand grounded. This pose develops the muscles in the shoulders and back. It tones the spine and stretches the abdominal muscles.
