Ultimate Guide to Roll To Standing
- Rolling forward and then gliding up to a standing position is a common yoga move. It does require a lot of coordination and agility. Roll to standing is surprisingly difficult, especially for older people.
- From standing, roll backwards on a mat, bringing your knees towards your head.
- Exhale and bring your chin to your chest and start to roll up the torso, moving the hands forward (your hands will add forward momentum to the lift).
- Drive your body forward keeping your fee close to your ass.
- If you develop enough forward momentum and have sufficient agility, you can power up to a standing position. If you lack either of these two, you will just be able to roll forward and then roll back to the starting position.
- Squat down and lower your buttocks to the floor and roll backward.
- Repeat.
