[@ロクアンドロルしかない]

You titled this ‘Impossible’ but clearly it isn’t.

[@KayKayBayForever]

@@ロクアンドロルしかない It’s clearly just purposeful exaggeration to emphasis how skilled she is. It’s a common way of speaking, so I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it?

[@biancalopez919]

If you are feeling down about your own practice after watching this or any other video with Laruga, please know that she has been practicing Ashtanga CONTINUOUSLY since 1998. Time and dedication get you here. "Perfection" is not the object in yoga--growth is. No matter how slow your progress, no matter how far you seem from being able to achieve even a simple pose, you are reaping as much benefit as the next yogi as long as you are approaching it with an open heart and working with your breath. Even the most advanced yogi will never stop growing.

[@pip5858]

That's were the strength and balance comes in with the control in the transitions. Same with Tai Chi, Chi Gong, etc.

I think it has immense health benefits let alone a strong and great foundation for meditation. I would think yoga is like anything as long as we are paying attention and of course have patience and perseverance and also important be careful of injuring, elasticity and strength would come eventually. Is it like that?

[@Enolu]

@@susanxjx Hiya, well I am 49 and just really beginning, so if you are 35 now, by the time you get to my age, you could have had 14 years of yoga practice! :-) I think that every day is important, and one good quality down dog ( :-) ) is much better than just rushing through any number of more technically complex shapes without mindfulness and connection. Wishing you well, and a lovely day!

[@JanelPutin]

4 years ago I overdosed on heroin and Xanax. I was in the ICU for a week with aspiration pneumonia, in the hospital together almost 3 weeks. I could hardly move due to severe muscle damage. I would literally go to the bathroom on myself from coughing. I couldn't control my body functions at all. I started doing just 10 minutes of yoga everyday once out of the hospital, which then turned into an hourof yoga everyday. I never missed a day. After over a year, I completely reversed all muscle damage from doing avid yoga. I'm 4 years clean and I am still doing yoga everyday. It saved my life 😊❤

[@publicdomainpoems4995]

A wise old yogi once told me: “many asana, one face”

[@nyssal3569]

I would have I a slight smile on my face if I am amazed at what my body and I can do after years of practice. It like eventually catching a ball after the numerous times a ball makes contact anywhere besides your hands after it is thrown towards you.

[@drawingonthemoon]

Yes she was completely poised!

[@aliy5936]

Thats amazing how yoga shows that you really dont need big muscles to be really strong!

[@redtopaz]

I mean, she's pretty ripped. Did you mean women don't need big muscles to be strong? Because women, even straight-up power-lifters, don't put on "bulky" muscle the way men do. Not enough testosterone for that :). I see this way of thinking a lot, and I guess what I'm saying is don't be afraid to weight-lift or work on strength if you're a woman. Even insanely strong ladies (like the woman in this video) very rarely have that Schwarzenegger look.

[@irenemax3574]

Ali Yoga helps you train your muscles so that you engage every fibre when strength is required. My elderly teacher looks fragile, but he is as strong as a bull!

[@yoced8213]

Foundation strength. Muscles that are toned to the body not an object such as weights. Seen ripped dudes have identical practices as overweight dudes.

[@andreahu9907]

You just need to build a strong core, you don’t need to look bulky/ripped! There’s a difference between fit and ripped. All based on what you want for your body.

[@agnidas5816]

What is amazing here is how poor you are at being able to tell if some one is strong or not. Most people have no eye for muscle mass.

[@shelita2468]

Laruga has a wonderful story about her own personal journey. Yoga is more than bendy poses, it’s a way of being. It’s the unification of mind, body and spirit. To know her is to understand that her practice is not just one sees on the mat. Such a beautiful flow!

[@valedro]

This level of mastery is absolutely awe-inspiring! Yoga isn't supposed to be about achievement, but nothing wrong with admiring amazing people.

[@loveydovey89]

I think it's great to see what the pose can llok like so you can work towards that. Good to have an amazing example!

[@C1etus]

I bet that people who never practiced Yoga thinks what she does is really hard. But people who practice it know this is plainly impossible. Wow.

[@Sehmetys]

That is not true. Give it a three years of dedicated practice, four times a week minimum, and you will get there.

[@k.kirkland9796]

@@Sehmetys You are completely ignoring the fact that for some people, due to bone structure or tendon and ligament placement, some of those moves will always be impossible. Every body is different, and not every body can manage full hip extension, side splits, etc. Encouraging people to push their bodies into forms that are physiologically impossible for them is what causes so many injuries in Yoga every year.

[@Sehmetys]

@@k.kirkland9796 , what Laruga demonstrates are asanas from the first 3-4 series of Ashtanga yoga. This is also what I've been practicing for two years now, until Nakrasana. I am aware that this is a short amount of time. However, as someone who is neither long-limbed nor particularly skinny/strong/flexible, I still stand by what I said. According to the descriptions I find at various blogs and forums, my body is all ''wrong''. But in the end, not like it matters - because neither of these asanas is anatomically impossible. Dwi Pada Shirsasana, Kapotasana, Karandavasana - you name it. Provided that you practice with a qualified teacher, none of these is either dangerous nor impossible. All it takes is time and dedication.

[@magentamagenta1274]

@@Sehmetys I have practised yoga for 20 years and would totally disagree that this is possible for many many reasons. I suffer with osteo arthritis and fibromyalgia my body is flexible and supple but not capable of moving into positions that cause pain or discomfort. This is never ever ever the intention or reason to practice yoga. yoga should always be practised within an individuals comfort zone, it isn't necessary to glamorise or present a performance for people to feel in awe or daunted. Whilst I applaud Laruga for her performance and capabilities I would do the same for anyone at any level with their practise, because yoga will be personal and beneficial to each and everyone that chooses to practice.

Melissa Peddy with all due respect this video wouldn’t exactly disprove the notion of women being weaker than men, the only thing that possibly could disprove that argument would be a sudden change in the entirety of human biology, which would probably only happen over the course of millions of years Of course none of this goes against the fact that this women and women in general are amazing, the supreme control this women has over her body truly is a trait most men could only dream of Sorry for the long comment, have a lovely day/evening

[@QuizzTwist]

Yoga girls are so strong

[@k.kirkland9796]

@@CubicleComa369 Most women have more lower body strength than most men. Most men have more upper body strength than most women. It's strength distribution. And people who work out and are in shape are going to be stronger than people who don't and aren't, regardless of sex. Nothing needs disproving other than an antiquated notion that is based in misogyny and a lack of understanding of physiology. Namaste.

David Bonessi Very well said and so very true. Words of wisdom. Namaste.

[@eunicesantiago8223]

David Bonessi Personally, I don't think it literally means its impossible. I interpret as what seems humanly impossible is actually possible. That once we explore further from our comforts, we learn that the only thing limiting us is our mind.

[@jadex38]

Eunice Santiago Precisely! I agree that this video highlights what most of us would deem very difficult - see impossible- but as anyone who maintains a regular yoga practice can attest to, your body and your mind will open up in ways you never imagined possible- that is the true power of yoga- we begin to see our infinite potential and clear all obstacles in our way. Namaste:-)

I had three disc prolapses (the 1st at my 30th birthday...seemed like an omen: you're getting old now, dude.) over a a period of 10 years, even though I've always been engaged in sports of various kinds: judo, basketball, bicycling. Until a year and a half ago - that's when I began practicing yoga on a regular basis - I'd been thinking for years that I always would have to live with backpain for the rest of my life. Now, at 47, I've been free from pain for several months. But the physical benefit is just a nice side effect...what happens mentally and spiritually when you get deeper into it is the most exciting trip one can imagine.

There is no such thing as being good or bad at yoga. It's not about what postures you can achieve, it's about connecting breath with movement and approaching it with an open heart. Namaste

[@deetheefoodie]

Ur absolutely right!!!! Thank u

The feeling of peace I've gotten from this video is something I can't explain. It's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Ashtanga is now something I aspire to practice

[@RedNarboneta]

I can't even do the crow pose without falling flat on my face. This is amazing

[@mollyram2997]

I'm trying to learn crow! I am so scared bc I keep falling forward, then I over-correct& flying falling backwards, LOL. Have you mastered it since last posting this?

Oh my God I am practicing for several years before to become certified teacher. Until now it is hard....

It took me 8 month to hold up my feet for 1 second... dont give up!!!!

My tummy is always in the way for most poses 😅

[@Emily-zo9nj]

Haha same!

[@Hilushenka]

Same and I am not very overweight but cannot for instance do launch by tacking my leg to my chest ...I also have to press the leg forward with my hand...well, one day ...maybe.

[@AllyPenguin]

Same!

[@annemarieclulow]

How beautiful! Art, beauty,flow,life. I am mesmerized by this, by the possibilities of the human body, thankyou

[@tubulardude3471]

I just finished a basic yoga routine and struggled through it. I got out of practice due to life circumstances, including a back injury. Now in my early 30s, I had an emotional moment over the aging of my body and how much more difficult it is now to get to the same place I was in my 20s, and how much more prone to injury I am now. Then clicked this video and immediately looked up Laruga's age.. at least 10 yrs older than me and with a body this strong.. I found this video inspiring, not discouraging. Thank you for sharing

[@Fruit_bee]

you can be healthy and younger looking, I turned 30 couple of days ago and am a refugee i have lots of stress but I'm practicing yoga for 14 years and am vegan for almost 6 years . People give me 22 years of age ❤️

[@andreaboo364]

I´m almost crying. That´s absolutely stunning and beautiful. Love it.

My boyfriend said yoga is "just a lot of stretching and breathing exercises" so I sent him this

[@billieshomies8381]

Emma Willaume haha

[@arthurtheaardvark13]

He ain't wrong though. Many of the more accessible forms of yoga concentrate heavily on breathing and stretching.

[@عاشقهالورد-ذ3ق]

@@billieshomies8381 hey can u help me?

[@ohjiraporn2403]

@@arthurtheaardvark13 I can't agree more. It is more accessible and benefitial. Though I have great respect to dedication of all yogi who practice Ashtanga.

I'm 56 and am having enough issues with downward facing dog and getting my feet flat. She's an inspiration and shows what the human body is capable of.

[@Kelly_Ben]

I hear that! I've been practicing yoga on and off since my 20s (I'm 43) and never could get my feet flat. I now know I never will... I have abnormally short Achilles, and simply have to do the best I can with what I've got. So many poses that I need to modify, regardless of strength and flexibility. But hey... it's the journey, enjoy it!

[@SvenStp]

It looks beautiful and so easy. I consider myself fit and already on the first pose i realize that i can't even reach my feet let alone flat my hands on the floor.. Plus the following 3000 tricks she does.. Inspiring. Unbelievable.

[@annaconradsson4859]

Hi Valeria! So happy you have found yoga, however - try to be kind to yourself and don't put yourself in a position where you hurt your joints from overextending. Ashtangayoga is mostly about breathing. Hope you will focus on that. Follow @yogagirl on Instagram if you want a teacher who try to show that yoga is not about how flexible you are, it is about a lot of other things. Good luck, Anna

[@tder3504]

Beautiful - like a dance! The body control she has is amazing and inspiring. Makes it look effortless! Kudos to your ability Laura!

[@blueOreo404]

I’ve never seen anyone perform yoga so beautifully! So inspiring! ❤

Lot of hard work and sacrifice required in order to attain such perfection in yoga....

Every single pose is riddiculosly hard! Well Done!!!

[@KGRAO2047]

Zen says some people take yoga as a gymnastics or an acrobatic. And thus they are unluckily missing the spiritual essence of this great Wisdom of life

[@danielokeeffe5848]

The Tao says that Zen has a subtle ego, and a failure to appreciate fine things as they are.

[@jenniebugs1]

What exactly is the spiritual aspect of doing this? If it’s a matter of self empowerment, then it’s not exactly spiritual - spirituality is contacting and merging with a divine being - unless the divine being in this case is yourself - in which case it’s ego.

Beautiful!! At :34 it really helps beginners to understand what instructors mean when they say 'step or hop to the front of your mat'. Ideally it should be this beautiful float thing that she does.. amazing!
