Puppy press 🐶 And puppy head butts! Trying to get strong again after a week off handstands! 🙃 - #puppypress #puppylove #handstands - Music by @sokothecat ❤️ (at Manchester, United Kingdom)

Guess who’s back..Back again... . . . . Feeling more like myself today. It’s a weird thing, when im bombarded with negativity I seem to find some weird clarity. A sort of clam through the storm. Now that I can actually wake up not in pain, I can start to turn to my practice again to help me heal and transcend through this moment. . . . . #mybodymychoice . . . . . . . #yoga #yogi #yogababe #yogaeverydamnday #yogafodasoul #om #oregon #namaste #bendy #flexible #fitness #pincha #pinchamayurasana #vessel #aries #asana #straddle #puppypress #stack #healing #bodylove #bodypositive #girlswithtattoos #pnw

@susanbishopyoga on Puppy Pressing 🐶💜 ・・・ Day 10 #yestopuppypress is #puppypress ❤️! . My own handstand pressing journey started with two blocks in a hallway. My arms were not straight. My legs were shaky and I had no control. Sometimes I felt a float, sometimes my arms gave out and sometimes my legs flew up and hit the wall behind me. One day I leaned in, arms bent and felt the float and muscled my way up to hips over shoulders and I felt the hover of stability. I tried it again but couldn't make it happen. Of course I was frustrated. But then I got determined. Anything that requires a multitude of variables can be frustrating. We all want to know the ONE thing that will enable us to press...but it's not ONE thing...it's putting together ALL the things in YOUR own body w YOUR own body proportions, strengths and weaknesses. So, I reviewed my videos. I started working pressing drills every day. I asked for help. Eventually I saw small improvements. Slowly my presses got more consistent. All this struggle was critical. I learned how much to lean, how to use my hands and finger pads as brakes, how to use my hip flexors to lift, and how to add a little hop or a bit of momentum or a higher prop to make my press happen. I reread Steph's account of her pressing journey from her book The Beginners Guide to Handstand Pressing and she struggled too!!! We all struggled as we eventually smoothed out the movements. I had to let go of the 'perfect' press and let the journey unfold and just accept things as they came. And so do YOU...so keep at it. Keep asking questions and send us videos so we can help. And know that we all are on this pressing journey together!! ❤️Feel free to DM me questions!! ❤️(Text/drills adapted from The Beginners Guide to Handstands and The Beginners Guide to Handstand Pressing by Steph Gongora😍❤️) . . ❣️Your Press-tastic HOSTS: ⭐️ @livinleggings ⭐️ @betse.y.oga ⭐️ @eileendelatorre ⭐️ @susanbishopyoga ⭐️ @tanyasizemore . . ❣️Generous SPONSORS: ❣️ @handfulbra ❣️ @yogisurprise ❣️ @myinnerfire ❣️ @the_bohemian_introvert ❣️ @thebeginnersguidetoyoga . #susanbishopyogatutorials ❤️🙏🏻 #yoga #yogatutorial #yogavideo
