Wow I love this video. Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge 🙏

[@YOGAthletica]

So glad it helped! 🤗❤️🙏

[@omyoga9164]

very good explanations! thank you

[@YOGAthletica]

thanks! glad it helped! ❤️

[@loisjclark]

Would be worth mentioning body proportions here, and the requirement for more flexible hammys & a higher leg position (for the Tyrannosaurs among us).

[@YOGAthletica]

Yes...you are absolutely correct and I would argue that bodily proportions have an effect on most (or almost all) yoga asanas. 🙏

[@blahblah4129]

Psoas muscle, which is crucial for this asana, sadly varies btw folks making it easier/difficult for some.

[@YOGAthletica]

Same can honestly be said for just about any Asana. Our movements are definitely affected by our musculature and bone structure.

[@belkamaltezerka4934]

Shana so helpful,thanks! So good explanation 😄!!

[@YOGAthletica]

yay! thanks!

[@caro1591]

[@shrutinaidu5655]

My fingers are weak to hold my toes and leg up for so long.how to strengthen that

[@YOGAthletica]

you are trying to strengthen your fingers? or leg? if it is hard to hold your leg up so long, keep in mind you don't have to hold it as long as i do. start with one cycle of breath if you need to and build up. also, a heavy leg is often the result of tighter muscles, so it may be stretching, rather than strengthening that you need. here are some hip openers that can help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoTdqqFubK9oY6s i also recommend my vimeo channel of full-length classes. my youtube is all singular postures. if you want to build the strength and flexibility to do these poses, i recommend full and regular daily practice. you can see my classes at vimeo.com/ondemand/yogathletica

[@Bibi111ism]

Even if, as you say, it is not the same posture, this video is also invaluable for not (not too) badly performing the "bikram" posture which is similar to it.

[@YOGAthletica]

not too bad...😅

[@kaiweiwong6316]

Thank you so much 感恩❤

[@YOGAthletica]

[@schays.p3254]

Thank you 💗

[@YOGAthletica]

you are so welcome! :)

[@clray123]

Scored 7.5 out of 7.5. That's more like 8, rounded up. I'm gonna cry.

[@YOGAthletica]

clray123 🤣 perfect 10!

[@clray123]

I tried to fix everything today and managed to get about 0.25 better before transitioning into the traditional hopping-around-on-one-leg vinyasa. But at least I have a new purpose in life now. I believe hopping on one leg positively shakes up the chakras.

[@YOGAthletica]

.25! I bet it was at least .41! Shake those chakras, baby! 🤣

[@akochc]

Love your videos💕

[@YOGAthletica]

thank you so much! and thanks for watching! :)

[@allankumar7552]

When I'm doing this asana I can't get balance.

[@YOGAthletica]

Did you know that youre actually not supposed to pronounce the "a" sound in "Asana" . We pronounce it as Asan in India.

[@YOGAthletica]

interesting! thanks!

Less talk more action

[@YOGAthletica]
