Description
Wheel pose is a back bending pose that opens the chest and shoulders, strengthens your arms, wrists, shoulders and legs, and improves spinal flexibility. This pose can be approached from different positions such as dropping back from a standing position, shifting weight from a seated position, or pushing up from a supine position.
This tutorial shows you how to go into wheel pose step by step from seated and supine positions. Pay attention to the rotation of the palms and shoulder and the gaze. Stay where you feel comfortable before you proceed to the next step. Avoid hyperflexing the shoulders.
