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).

feels so good after doing it.. i didn't feel any pain in my wrists..so glad to know that my body is capable of doing it. :D you are such a good teacher!
This is a great video and I can successfully do a wheel, however I find that after I do the wheel, my wrists and hands hurt and I can not continue doing yoga until a few hours have passed for my wrists/hands to rest. Do you know of any way that I can fix this? Thank you!
You are an amazing teacher! After practicing yoga regularly for 3 years, I was finally able to do my first wheel pose ever! I was so excited, I had to redo the pose to make sure it wasn't a fluke! Thank you!
I haven't regularly done the titular pose since participating in gymnastics as a child and generally considered it a thing of the past. Imagine how surprised I was to find myself *easily* popping up into wheel at the end of this class! Sure, it's not the prettiest wheel anyone's ever seen but the boost I've gotten from these past few weeks from unearthing what I thought was a gone-for-good asana is gorgeous!
