The Dramatic Coffin Pose

Fans of vampires should be eager to try the coffin pose. This dramatic move requires some practice but is surprisingly achievable. Begin with a single footlock on both silks. Lean back slightly and engage your core before crossing both legs at the ankles, one in front of the other.

Bring the dominant leg up and wrap it around the pole of the fabric, tucking the foot behind the opposite leg. Reach the opposite arm above your head, creating a long, graceful line. Feel the power and balance as you hold this pose and slowly unwind the leg and arm when it’s time to come back down.
