I am trying to access areas of my back my new coach points out I don't bend...nice to finally have a trained eye calling me on such things. :-P I am finding backbending a lot healthier that front- at the moment, so I am going with it. I hope some progress is evident since the previous video in this series.

Sorry I was doing pictures during BJ so I wasn't ready for the backbend. I switched to video mode as quickly as possible but I didn't take enough time to focus for fear of missing it. Damn the lady's head that's in the way!

A little over a month since the last installment:
The handstand scorpion with feet in armpits is relatively new for me...it will get better. Headsit is close, but still not there. I hadn't practiced bridge with hands between the feet in a while...hoping to pass feet convincingly sometime. A little frontbending counterstretch is included at the end.
