Hi Stephanie,

 

Why do you jump back? Try and control your momentum as you come up: you need the right balance of speed and slow for this. Maybe try a different surface (yoga mat)?

Hi Stephanie, 

 

You're falling backwards because your center of gravity is not over your feet before your start to stand up.  Pull your feet into your but as hard as you can as you roll up to get them close to your body, at the same time reach your torso out and over your toes (at first I had to shoot my knees out to the side to allow my body to come through but as hip mobility has improved I don't need to do this much anymore).  

 

Once your weight is centered over your feet you can stand straight up.

 

 Try to figure out why you can't get your feet closer to your body, is it hip, ankle or knee mobility issues or just bad technique.
