Q&A: Jason's Tips for Nailing Forearm Balance

Jason's back on the podcast answering some of our listeners most common questions. This week, we tackle questions related to Pincha Mayurasana (Forearm Balance).

We dive into:

* Headless Headstand - An alternative pose that recommends for students who are new to Forearm Balance

* Three things the shoulders need to be in order to practice Forearm Balance

* A conversation about Jason's biggest pet peeve that he sees students do when they're setting up for Pincha Mayurasana and Headstand (and why Andrea has decided to politely agree to disagree)

* How to avoid having an excessive curvature in the low back (a phenomenon often called "banana back") in Pincha Mayurasana

* Four helpful variations on Pincha Mayurasana
