How to Tuck Up: Hard Yoga Poses Made Easy

How to work towards “tucking up” into handstand:
In the ‘Hard Yoga Poses Made Easy’ series, we focus on a particular yoga pose or skill that seems (or is) very difficult and we make it a lot easier by breaking it down into actionable, realistic, and sequential steps.
In this tutorial, we focus on the action and transition called “the tuck up”.
This one is all about reps and using each attempt to gain confidence and work on finding the balancing point where the tuck up becomes a tuck and hold (and eventually tuck, hold, handstand).
To get to this point, we cover 5 steps/drills that you can start practicing today as you work towards the full transition (step 5).
Here are the 5 steps/drills we’ll be going over:
1) Jumps
2) Wall
3) Forward
4) Hold
5) Tuck & Up
Take your time, enjoy the ride, and always feel free to ask questions!

[@DMC1111]

How do you keep your arms straight and strong? as soon as I try my arms bend maybe I’m just a weakling 😢

[@YogaApothecary]

How long do you suggest practicing these drills? Everyday?

[@Floydandsome]

Yes, just like when you learn walking for the first time

[@paulschweissbrenner]

i`m not able to get my hips over my shoulders. i guess i`m lacking of strength in my shoulders. right? how can i improve?

[@stepaukob]

Did you ever figure it out?

[@paulschweissbrenner]

@@stepaukob yes, I do strength training for my shoulders. I'm still lacking of flexibility in my lower back but the strength in the shoulders helps.

[@stepaukob]

@@paulschweissbrenner I wondered if it was my shoulders weren't open enough but my shoulder strength also needs improvement.

[@ladyinred9656]

I hate tucks. Why not just kick ups..I do have hamstring flexibility and still struggle with this

[@purnadas6840]

[@rebeccamaynes5420]

This is a nice demo but doesn’t provide any information about how to actually do it. I’ll keep looking!
