I have been practicin yoga Iyengar for several years. Your videos are really hepful. I tore my meniscus due to lack of hip opening.

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Jose, happy you found your way to Iyengar as we have so many ways in our teaching to bring mobility and strength to all of our joins. Freedom. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@red68ification]

Thank you I’ll check out the one you mentioned, thank you

The bolster to help keep my bent leg at 90 degrees in kapotasana is a game changer! I felt a deep stretch in the opposite hip / waist and glutes. Also the wall supported half moon was so freeing and exhilarating. Forever grateful, Kathy!

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Arthi be curious in your practice and use support to help you get a deeper understanding but also to hold longer for a cellular imprint. 🙏🏻

Powerful! Great line-up of hip openers which is just what I need. Have props ready, as this is crammed with poses and somewhat quick transitions. Will be watching this one again fer-sher. 💫

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Hi El, sometimes we do and other times we study. Pick it apart and study the actions and effects in your body. Thanks for your comment. Enjoy!

Interesante y muy bien explicado ❤❤

[@RebeccaWhite30]

Your instruction is fantastic! I feel so much more connected to my hips during this practice.

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Hi Rebecca, nice to get deep into that space and unlock stored energy there. Such a lovely practice for the back and organic body. Blessings. 🙏🏻❤️

Thanks for sharing this practise 🙏

Enjoy!

[@emmaeIIe]

That was a great routine. Supta baddha konasana is so challenging as I'm tight in the groin area. The image that came to mind was akin to trying to unstick an old sweet from its wrapper. I'll try the yoga for menstruation practice you recommended.

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Hi Emma, our practice is a great help when done over time. Continue to practice with a bit of support and then reduce the support once the groins are a bit more open. Until then patience and joy!

[@deniswalker1409]

Excellent! Just what I needed! Many thanks!

Felisa, Muchas gracias!

[@neelamdesai218]

Thanks. It’s very useful. Suggest if titles can be moved from centre to the right corner, your asana can be clearly visible. Thanks again

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Thank you so much for your feedback! Will look into that and make it better :-)

[@theresaherfindahl5781]

It seems to be impossible for me to get into this position. Two bolsters (which I dont have) may not be enough lift for me. any suggestions?

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Dear Theresa, I relooked at the hip opening and find I did not use a bolster much. Please explain which pose and I can direct you. While standing, perhaps you can use a chair or stool. Face the stool on both feet. Bend the leg at 90 degrees, rest the thigh on the flat surface.. Hope that helps. Namaste

[@delilahmadrine882]

Hello Kathy! Are there any specific poses in Iyengar Yoga to reduce cellulite/saddlebags on legs?

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Hi Delliah, The standing poses are huge for strengthening the legs and toning them. When your practice includes standing along with some jumping or active and a quicker paced portion of your practice you will begin to see a difference. Practicing over time is the best approach. Slowly you will feel better, have more strength and stamina which will result in many changes. Take time each day no matter how long in the beginning and build up.

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Your body and your mind will be thankful you persisted. Namaste, Kathy
