How is my headstand? I noticed that my neck may be a little out of alignment. Also, is it okay with the added layer?

Looks like the elbows may be falling open. They should be pointing straight forward and up.
More protraction through the shoulders. (This may due the how narrow your mat is)
Legs are a bit piked.
Okay, thank you, will work on it.
However, is it acceptable to work this element on a mat, or should I work on "conditioning" my head to the pressure of a harder surface?
A mat is totally acceptable, it's not Shoalin Temple training ![]()
Just went from 4 x 36s to mastery 5 x 60s because of your tips, especially the one where I was piking my legs. It is close to effortless. Thank you.
Great job!
