How to perform Wall Headstand

1. Kneel facing a wall and place your forearms on the floor with your elbows about shoulder-width apart.
2. Clasp your hands and position them behind your head, with the crown of the head on the floor inside the forearm base.
3. Press through your forearms, lift your hips and walk your feet closer while keeping the head and arms positioned.
4. Bring your legs upward under control until your heels can make light wall contact.
5. Hold your body aligned over the support without turning your head or deliberately pressing more weight through it.
6. Bend and lower your legs to return your feet and knees to the floor before releasing the arm support.
