That's a nice practice. I can't get my head to the floor while in wide legged forward fold because I have a short torso.

Hi Emmaelle. Thanks for the comment! Really don’t worry about getting your head to the floor. Support your head on blocks or folded blankets and work on lifting your legs. This is the key to eventually getting the head to the floor. It takes a long time but keep repeating the mantra “in order to go down, you have to go up”. With time, even those with long limbs can get into the pose! Let us know how you get on! Lin and Leo

Hi another great video. Should the pelvis be straight or posteriorly tilted when doing Baddha Konasana as in the demonstration.

[@YogawithLinandLeo]

Thanks so much for another really interesting comment Johnno! ☺️ In an ideal world, the pelvis should not be tilted back. We are aiming for deep groin action which will lift the pelvis into a vertical position. However, if you are a bit stiff in the hips, (as Leo freely confesses she is!) the tailbone tends to slide forwards and the pelvis tilts back. One way to help this action is to work with the feet beneath the level of the pelvis. We hope this is clear, if not feel free to come back to us. Namaste. Lin and Leo 🙏
