Forget about the perfect pose. Here is where we focus on the small, consistent movements that build strength, mobility, and confidence. Let's grow.

Building compression strength and mobility, one rep at a time. This core drill, moving from a tuck to a V-straddle, is essential for handstands and arm balances.

This is a look at the drills I'm using to build my Kapotasana, or Pigeon Pose, from the ground up. It's a journey of patience and persistence.

A glimpse into the work behind a deep backbend like Kapotasana. This video shows wall holds with hip pikes, a drill to open the chest while maintaining engagement.

Using the wall is a great way to safely deepen backbends. This drill involves holding the pose at each level as I walk my hands down, focusing on length over depth.

Reverse Nordics are a fantastic drill for quad activation and learning to maintain tension in the hips while arching the spine, which is crucial for drop backs.

Hang backs without the wall help to articulate the spine better. This drill focuses on thoracic extension while avoiding dumping the load into the lower back.

Kapotasana push-ups are an advanced drill to build strength and control in the full expression of the pose. It's important to build up to this slowly and mindfully.

These passive puppy pose variations helped me unlock deeper backbends. Explore these stretches to open the shoulders, heart, and upper back. The last variation is my favorite.

This is one of my favorite backbending drills using blocks against a wall. It helps to open the thoracic spine and elevate the shoulders, creating more space for the backbend.

A beginner friendly handstand drill. These shoulder walks with feet on a chair help you understand weight transfer and prepare the shoulders for a full handstand.

These are not just random exercises. When we focus on drills like Reverse Nordics or pike handstand shrugs, we are training your nervous system to find stability and control under load. Whether you are chasing a full handstand or just trying to open up your back, these small, consistent movements are the real keys to unlocking depth in your practice.

I’m Surbhi – dancer, teacher, and forever student. I didn't get here by forcing big poses; I got here by showing up for the small, wobbly bits every single day. I share these drills so you can experience that same sense of freedom and genuine progress.
