This was by far the most toughest one for me. I have the following questions/issues coaches

1) Should the legs be together when we are in the initial standing pike position, my toes tend to point outwards because of my duck feet.

2) When I try to keep the legs together and bring my hands all the way down, my knees start to point outward.. is this normal?

3) While walking back up I just loose control and my legs tend to walk outwards from my hands, instead of walking in a straight line and also my knees point outward

4) Do the shoulders need to always stay protracted? 

Coaches, I have attached the pictures of my posture, can you please look at them and let me know?

Hey Nikhil,

It might be best if you post a video via youtube.  It's quite hard to tell wether your form is good or in need of modification.
