We have been bombarded with content-free tutorials recently; you probably have too.

The ABH was featured on one of them, and was completely devoid of any meaningful instruction. The Arch Body Hold (Shalabhasana in Yoga) is an old, excellent, and difficult position to master.

Most people experience strong cramping in the lower back when they try this, and this is likely to be your experience too, without the right self cues.

This tutorial is the last exercise in "Master the Full Back Bend" (one of the five "Mastery Series", available from our inexpensive Vimeo on Demand pay download channel).

Olivia takes Craig though the subtleties of the ABH, from the simplest version to the strongest, and you can literally see Craig's form improving over the 16 minutes of the tutorial.

The Stretch Therapy method itself is on display, too: meticulous, precise cueing, whose results are instantly visible in Craig's body shape (and no back pain!).

Why not learn from people who do the same stuff you want to do?

And please share far and wide: we want to show people what real tutorials looks and feel like. In my view, a tutorial is meant to TEACH you something, not just be a cheap promotion for one of your products or, worse, advertising some unrelated product that you've never used.
