Bhujangasana → Adho Mukha Svanasana

In the transition from Bhujangasana to Adho Mukha Svanasana, avoid dumping the movement into the lower back.

First, lower the chest and upper body, create space through the spine, and then press through the hands to lift the hips back into Adho Mukha.

Control the transition instead of pushing straight back from the lumbar spine.

In Parsvakonasana, don’t simply lean forward and dump your body weight onto the front foot.

Use a yoga chair for support and focus on distributing the weight through both legs while keeping the spine long and the pelvis stable.

The chair helps you understand the posture without forcing the body into the front leg.

Adho Mukha Svanasana with a chair

A chair can be a useful prop to understand the alignment of Adho Mukha Svanasana. Place the hands firmly, use the chair for support, and focus on lengthening the spine while lifting the hips.

Instead of forcing the posture, use the support to feel the correct direction and gradually build stability.

Chaturanga — try working against gravity

If Chaturanga from High Plank feels too difficult, use a bolster under the torso for support. Instead of constantly lowering your body toward gravity, the bolster gives you a stable base to work from, so you can practice lifting and pressing away from the support.

This helps you understand the strength and control needed for Chaturanga without forcing the body into the full posture too soon. 🌿

Humble Warrior — start with an open pelvis

In Humble Warrior, we often see the back hip being pulled forward and the pelvis closing too much. Instead, allow the pelvis to stay open and rotate naturally with the front leg while you fold forward. Keep the front knee stable, lengthen through the spine, and let the movement come from the hips rather than forcing the torso down.

A small change in the pelvis can completely change how the posture feels. 🌿

Sirsasana — first, shift the weight

Before trying to lift the legs, first learn to shift your weight into the forearms and create stability. Then walk the feet in and lift the hips up, bringing them in line with the shoulders. Once the hips are stacked over the base, the legs become much easier to lift without jumping or forcing.

Build the balance first — the legs come later. 🌿

Trikonasana — step by step.

Start by creating a strong foundation through both feet. Turn the front leg out, keep the back foot grounded, and engage both legs.
Extend the arms, lengthen the spine, and reach the torso sideways before lowering the hand.

Keep both sides of the waist long, open the chest, and let the head turn only after the spine and pelvis are organised.

Build the posture from the feet upward, rather than trying to reach the floor first.

A yoga block between the belly and thighs can help you understand the direction of movement in Uttanasana.

Keep the block gently supported as you fold, encouraging the pelvis to move over the thighs while maintaining length through the spine. It gives you a clear reference for how the torso and legs relate during the forward fold.

Use the support to learn the movement rather than forcing yourself deeper.

🌿 Join us and learn to approach yoga with greater awareness and understanding.
