5 Poses to Wheel
You couldn't ask for a better lead up to wheel in such a short amount of time. Rachel is so thorough and careful with which poses she chooses, ending up with a class that releases the key muscles to allow your body to open up into Urdhva Dhanurasana (wheel pose).

This is superb for opening the upper back! I will come back to this class regularly. My breathing is now profound and deep tension has been released.
Thank you, Rachel. I found your 5 postures very good and loved being back in wheel after being seriously injured in a car crash. I added some twists and a forward bend after to neutralise my spine. Namaste from Ireland.
Thank you Rachel for your clear instruction and great preparation poses. I am struggling to get into the wheel, it feels like I don't have the strength in my arms (or perhaps flexibility in my shoulders). I get stuck on my head, and cant seem to get my arms extended. Do you have any suggestions of more preparation poses I could do to work on this so I can get to wheel someday?
This felt amazing after yet another long day sitting for 8 hours straight at the office. This flow was awesome to follow, even if dolphin kicked my butt more than wheel did!

Haha! Yes, dolphin pose is so hard!!!
I'm so glad that you enjoyed the flow - wheel pose is such a good antidote to daily life :)
