Keep in mind that you are lengthening the spine, opening the chest, reaching the sternum up and then moving into the backbend. Keep your hips pushing forward, quadriceps are active and strong. With the video you'll learn to bend from the entire back instead of only from the lower back. This will help you have a healthy and sustainable practice.
