In today's episode of my practice diary: king cobra.
I can't say that we like each other, but we definitely share a bond now.

I learned a new chinstand entry yesterday, and it was so much fun. Bending one leg first makes a huge difference!

Thanks to .yoga for teaching me this little trick 🤍 I replayed your video about ten times yesterday while trying to figure out the entry, and then it finally clicked 🥳

Have you tried entering your chinstand this way? 👀

I've been incredibly lucky to meet amazing yoga teachers throughout my journey. Each one has enriched my practice in their own way and left a lasting mark.

I especially love working with The way she understands my body and seems to decode exactly what it needs never ceases to amaze me. I'm constantly impressed.

One of the things I appreciate most is how she helps me experience an asana in different ways. She'll suggest appropriate adjustments, offer modifications, or point out subtle details to refine. They often seem like tiny changes, but they completely transform how the pose feels.

We've also been working on my chestands, and I can genuinely feel the difference after applying all of her tips. That makes me beyond happy, as you know how much I love chestands 😅

I've discovered so many beautiful shapes in my body because of her guidance, and I'm deeply grateful for that 🙏

Here's a little glimpse into one of our 1:1 sessions. A flipped grip in Anjaneyasana on both sides was something I never even imagined would be possible for me, and it turned out to be far more achievable than I ever expected 🤯

Just a little appreciation post from my side 🤗🙏

There is something beautiful about dedicating years to a practice and allowing its gifts to reveal themselves in their own time 🤍🦢
