Legs up the Wall

This variation provides much different benefits than the seated Caterpillar; however, students can invert their legs with their back pressed against the Earth as opposed to bending forward. This provides all the same benefits of Caterpillar in terms of stretching the legs, but instead of stretching the spine and shoulders, it inverts the body sending healing to the circulation center and heart. This pose feels amazing and is a favorite among students.

Tip!

Tip: To get your legs against the wall (this may be difficult for some people) press your hip as right up against the side of the wall, lay on your back and flip your legs up!
