Thanks, Rachel for your confidence-inspiring cues! I'm glad to have some solid guidance as I work towards floating towards the top of my mat.

Some handy hints!

This is something I find super difficult, despite having the arm strength and flexibility. The tips and demos should help - thanks Rachel!

Thank you Rachel. I especially appreciate the positive, helpful attitude.

Very helpful mini tutorial.
