And now we are going to do the Headstand
This morning was sun salutation 3. Which means that at the ending of the class, before the shiok ‘lying down and sleeping part’, the instructor Yvette, told us that we are going to do the Headstand.
I can do the shoulder stand. But head stand? Might as well ask me to do a handstand. So I just wanted to watch the other people doing and of course not do anything. But of course dear Yvette came over to help me so under her watchful eyes and helpful arms, I had to try to do the headstand.

So I put my head near my arms and kicked up my legs because I knew she would hold them up for me and struggled. She kept on saying ‘Tighten your stomach’. I tried to. For like 2 seconds. Of course I gave up in the end. Haha. Lousy abs.
The best thing is that the lady on the mat next to me couls do the headstand all by herself and like in the picture above.
