These tutorial videos are absolutely golden! I always get so many useful insights that I can directly apply to the practice and overcome those less obvious vinyasas and asanas, like getting out of Bhujapidasana, which I'm still working on and didn't fully understand how. Thank you 🙏

Jelena what a beautiful practice you have! Thank you David for your expert way of breaking very complex moves down into chunks we can practice with. My teacher used to say you just practice til you do it - one day it will happen. Your breakdown gives my brain body coordination the extra help i need to practice in the right way that will make me stronger not get me injured.

Hey David and Jelena, thank you so much for this tutorial! You always have helpful advice, and it's really nice to see how you two work together so well ❤ A feedback if I may: Being a yoga teacher myself, I experience that the first challenge for students in bhujapidasana is usually being able to stay upright on the hands and not just fall back on their bum haha! And you're not really dressing this challenge in your tutorial. I guess it makes sense from an ashtanga point of view though because when you reach bhujapidasana in ashtanga, you're already a relatively advanced student right? Secondly, the jumping forward and going straight into bhujapidasana without putting the feet on the floor first, hast been a mystery for me for years, and still is, and I've kind of given up on it. Maybe you would have some tips for that one as well? 🙏

Hi, I love you both so much, you always ask what we wanna seer in your channel and here's my petition. I find very confusing drihsti during surya namaskard A and B. I'd like to see it filmed from the front, I don't get what "gaze at the tip of your nose"is, when I'm doing upward facing dog I don't know if I have to do that gaze during the whole movement, and in surya namaskard B that and the flow of breath I find it very confusing, if you could deconstruct that in a video I would very much appreciate it, because I think sun salutations are very difficult to do ok, there is so much happening. Thank you foir your hard work

Thank you for uploading this video! I'm still learning this posture and the base of my knuckles always seem to lift up off the floor. Does it take away any of the strength required to be able to do this posture? 😅

@DavidandJelenaYoga Жыл бұрын

Hi Louise, thanks for watching and commenting. So yes, when you lift your knuckles it not only takes away some of your strength but it also puts more pressure onto the outer edge of your wrist which can lead to injury so you want to avoid it. Hopefully this helps :)

How to have a flexible upper back..... Even upward dog i have no flexibility especially urdva dhanurasana... So hard to press up arms splayed

@dontask4990 2 жыл бұрын

You may need to build up upper body strength by making poses such as Chaturanga Dandasana and Kakasana (Crow Pose). Do some sun salutations outside the series such as exercises. Do your sun salutations properly, it will help you increase your upper body strength, improve your balance/arm balance/jump back & jump through. Sun salutation is a beautiful exercise in itself when it does it the right way. If your upper body is strong enough to support a healthy Chaturanga Dandasana, you probably don’t need any more arm strength than you already have.
