Ninja Star VS Ninja Bat • AcroYoga Washing Machine • YogaSlackers Sam & Raquel
There are two distinct variations of the classic Ninja Star washing machine. In this short video, we play with both: Ninja Bat and Ninja Star. The difference between the two sequences is very subtle.
Ninja Bat substitutes back flying with straddle bat. While it is not the original flow, Ninja Bat is probably the most utilized variation of this beautiful sequence developed by Lux from Seattle Acro.

    • @RaquelHernandezCruz
      @RaquelHernandezCruz 7 місяців тому

      That’s a great option. It will help you learn the body position, gain shoulder and core strength, in addition to learning to balance from the forearms. If you feel better and want to do the drill from your hands, you will only be adding one new variant.

  • @Tudorache70
    @Tudorache70 7 місяців тому

    This is amasing 🎉 Super But not for the beginners How will a beginners get to do a handstand to have the confidence to release the fit from the scissors fro the wall and stay on the elbow handstand (the palms r weak to sustain all the body) by himself.....😢thats a big issue

    • @Yogaslackers
      @Yogaslackers 7 місяців тому

      Absolutely, progression is crucial. For those starting out, I recommend the "Wall Scissors" drill, which is broken down into three difficulty levels. There's also a preliminary "Wall Tightness Drill" for building foundational strength. Advance to the next level only when you feel strong and secure enough. Patience and gradual improvement are essential. Here are the resources: Wall Tightness Drill: ua-cam.com/video/CIpJD-UfEvA/v-deo.html Wall Scissors Drill (3 Levels): ua-cam.com/video/DG8-hH3jbGk/v-deo.html After mastering Level 3, aim to move closer to the wall, as demonstrated in the current tutorial. Remember, the key tip from this video is to properly align your forearms. Keep practicing, and stay consistent!
