Plank is a fundamental asana that creates awareness around your shoulder girdle, core body, pelvis and legs. Essentially, plank is a full body discovery that can give way to a greater understanding of arm balances and inversions like handstand. Expect a number of planks (some with long holds) and variations, as you sweat, work hard, and arrive into the present moment. Counter all of your shoulder work with heart openers and savasana.
