Today you'll strengthen the abs and shoulders before moving into Caterpillar and Handstand practice, just a few reps and I included the tutorial for Caterpillar again if you need to refresh your memory on the mechanics.
Pro tip: You may have heard the cue, square your shoulders and center body with the pole for Caterpillar. This cue is unnecessary and creates a more difficult position for the dancer to lift themselves.
When practicing the Caterpillar remember there's no need to center your body with the pole, instead bring the shoulder of the between the legs arm, not the overhead arm, towards the pole for a more secure Caterpillar. Let the hips shift to the side and don't forget how much pull your calf is providing when you lift the butt up!
Allow the videos to play in order and follow along. Feel free to pause anytime you need to.
