Hi lovely Gilnar! 

Just to clarify when you say “pike jump,” do you mean more like a frog jump, or maybe a puppy press? Both need loads of core engagement, compression strength, and shoulder stability — so yes, a mix of both strength and skill work is super helpful. 

Check out Meghan's classes - she broke down the frog jump already which you can find here Frog Jump Tutorial | Meghan Currie Yoga Online Studio

The puppy press play is also a great class to do, in order to build that strength. Puppy Press Play | Meghan Currie Yoga Online Studio

I can highly recommend the 5 Day Program Upside Down to build more strength in that area!! Upside Down | Meghan Currie Yoga Online Studio
