Upside down

In London for work- surprised myself by fitting in a strong practice when I arrived last night and again this evening. My core strength has improved rapidly with practice and I could feel a big improvement last night when I worked on really squaring my hips for down dog splits/core planks.  Using my core also improves my arm strength and the shiva kicks for handstand prep are becoming more achievable.  Compass pose still a long way off.  The confidence I get on the mat gives me a huge endorphins boost.
