haha! well thank you. I'll take the weird as a complement. These are meant to be funny yet educational... I have another big group of pose explanations here on my channel without the weirdness :)
Just discovered your channel and subscribed! Question, how could someone with lower back issues do the pyramid pose? Would it be better to use 2 blocks under my hands to lift myself up a bit? Or just place my fingertips on the floor? (I am flexible enough).
Good question! Yes, both of those are good ways to do this pose. The big thing is keeping your back flat and your hips square... sometimes i actually practice this pose in the kitchen where I have the kitchen counters to hold on to. It allows me to kinda play around with how my feet/legs/hips are positioned so I can find the feeling even better :)
feeling that stretch in the front hamstring is what to aim for... so you're probably not doing anything "wrong"... what helps me is to make sure my hips are square as i come down... assume your right leg is forward... and your left leg is back... try to bring your left hip forward just a tiny bit as you hinge down... this should make you feel it more overall in your legs and more in that back leg too.
I really love the way you share yoga knowledge and your energy. Thank you so much
you are amazing, after 20 years of yoga I am learning with you and a lot
I really love your video’s you make me laugh and you are very informative! Thankyou!
Your delivery is weird but your precision techniques and corrective tips are the best. You've been helpful.

@@yogawithlandon thank you very much!!!
I feel the stretch in my frontleg-hamstring and nearly no stretch in the backleg. Am I doing something wrong/different?
