Sarah Thanks for the question! Allowing your hands to come off the footbar at the end of a Down Stretch/"back bend" is all in the hamstrings. The whole exercise benefits if you focus on pressing the feet into the foot bar to maintain the shape. I would practice by knowing that first, then simply either hovering the fingertips or even pretending you're about to lift your arms up, but stopping before the shape changes.  I hope that helps!

Kristi Cooper Thanks! I'll let you know how I get on with this modification. 

Great way to end my day! This class goes on repeat!

Kristi W Glad you liked it! I love the way you spell your name :)
