Bicycle Spinner

Little thing I have been playing with lately with Leah. I call this bicycle spinner. Leah is the young lady I wrote Scorpion Heart with several years ago. We were separated for a good long time but starting to explore again with each other. So nice to have her back in my life. So emotional these types of partnerships get. I have been thinking a lot about this lately. Such a fascinating topic. How we bond with those whom which we partner. Been thinking a lot about how to speak about these things. I’m sure I will have something else to share on this soon as I never seem to shut up. ? #acrolove #acroyoga #deepmonkeystyle #westsideacro #acro #footjuggling…

Reverse Hollow Back on Hands

A year ago today I shared this pic of @moderntarzan Nicholas doing a beautiful reverse hollow back on hands with me. Since then Nicholas has become a worldwide phenomenon of awesome. He deserves it. Truly a sweet guy. His ideas about movement are to me some of the most interesting out there in a field of fascinating movers. I’m proud as can be of all he’s accomplished and will in the future. And as you can see from the photo here I’d like to think I supported him along the way. #gratitude #socalyoga #socalyogis #movement #yoga #balance #trust #strength #beast #power #acro #acrolove #acroyoga #pose #hollowbackhandstand #hollowback #handstand#whereiacro #calisthenics #power…
Inverted Pindasana - AcroYoga w/ Chris Filkins

Inverted Pindasana

This one is very dangerous. Use a spot. This will fail directly onto the neck of the flyer and could result in paralysis if you do not take this pose seriously. Be warned. This is a neck balance. The flyer is being held and is lifting directly off of the C7. My hands are cupped and together like I am holding a liberty. This neck balance, a modified pindasana, comes from Ashtanga and is dope as can be. It’s a glorious pose to balance. Use a spot. Work this out very carefully. #deepmonkeystyle #ashtanga #play #yogaeverydamnday #yoga #yogateacher #acro #acroyoga #westsideacro #fitness #fitfam #fit #strength #socalyogis #strengthproject #trust #balance #beastmode #pindasana…
