How do I prepare for pincha?

Here’s a sequence I’m doing before practicing pincha 🙃

It helps with warming up and opening up the shoulders 💪

One thing you should know though is that before even starting this sequence I had a 15 min stretching session, 20 min free flow with some rounds of sun salutation and I also did a 10-minute pilates workout focused on the abs 🥵 – which I think helps to build some core strength as well.

My point here is: don’t forget to warm up!

I used to think that I could go straight to pincha whenever I decided to but I would always end up disappointed. I’ve learned with time that pincha requires a LOT of preparation before even trying to enter the pose.

So… Please warm up 🤪 and if you can’t do pincha yet, just continue to practice those drills consistently and with time you’ll get there.
