I am so glad that we will be practicing inversions at every class. I definitely need more work on these and would definitely benefit from corrections. Practicing inversions at home have proved fruitful. I am using the wall in my living room rather than in my room since I do not want my neighbors to hear thudding as I kick up onto the wall.
Headstands have become easier in two aspects. 1) I can kick myself up alot easier now. That makes me more confident in my abilities. One thing I discovered that helps me get into headstand is being a few inches from the wall, so I won't automatically fall back if I kick off too hard. Usually pushing too hard when I'm a few inches from the wall is ok because my butt will just rest on the wall. 2) I do not need to rest my feet on the wall anymore. I can be completely off the wall for a few minutes now.
Shoulderstands are probably the easiest out of the three for me. However, I still need to work on getting my back more straight. I feel like my back is pretty curved in shoulderstand. I think my goal should be to get my hands as high up my back as possible.
Handstands are definitely my least favorite type of inversion. I just cannot seem to get up the wall. I still have reservations on whether I can support myself. Walking up the wall is still hard for me, so I do not know if I can do a full handstand. That is something I really need to work on.
I often feel like my back is pretty curved in shoulderstand as well; I wish there was some way we could see ourselves doing it...though Morrison 100 isn't really equipped!
