Inversions aren't the first things to come to mind when you don't have a lot of space to practice, but according to McMullen, you can actually practice handstands in your doorway. "You might not have space to kick up, but you can build strength in the shoulders," McMullen explains. Do it this way:
- Put your back and butt against the inside of the doorway
- Use your feet to crawl up the other side
- Work on coming into an "L" shape
- Rise all the way up with your feet at the top of the doorway
If you're still nervous about practicing in the space you have, Warren says you can also choose to focus on meditation. "Something that's important in balancing out a physical practice, of the asana, is also a seated practice, of meditation, and it doesn't take any more space than if you were sitting in your car," she says. "It's just important that people are attempting to practice at all. It's still creating and spreading mindfulness, and that's the ultimate goal."
