    I see a lot of people frustrated that these poses aren't 'made easy'. With yoga it's important to remember your level and to honor where your body is at. After you have practiced a while and when your body is ready this video will be useful in helping you achieve these difficult poses. We must walk before we fly. Namaste.

    Man so many people giving her shit for being skinny. She is obviously a master at this which means she's put in thousands of hours of practice. Maybe once you do that you won't feel the need to hate on her for her body type

      I dunno what anyone would expect from a yogi. And there are plenty of yogis of different sizes to follow.
      I'm finally at a healthy weight but my thighs are still huge, I have massive quad muscles so I'm definitely apprehensive about if I'll be able to do what she's doing lool
      It's a lot of leg to balance on my arms basically 😆

    Thank you so very much for breaking down these poses. I love doing yoga, naturally I am a very flexible person from when I took dance however when I put on 60, 70, 80 pounds of weight I stop dancing. And I am now getting back into my yoga and breaking down these poses is motivating for me, so that I don't get intimidated and back away from trying the harder poses as I've done in the past.

  • @SuperLiebz
    @SuperLiebz 10 лет назад +8

    The trick with most of these poses is to realize they're not so much about strength as they are about balance. Standing crow seems super hard, but once you find the right balancing spot, it's really easy! You definitely don't have to be very strong to do them.

    Contrary to what it looks like, the muscles that hold crow pose are hip flexors, core, and back. Her legs look almost weightless on the back of her arms since she's lifting up A LOT in her hips, core, and back. The arms are engaged only for balance. Crow pose it HARD, and I fell on my face more times than I can count! It is good to laugh at yourself because that's what I did and then got up and kept trying :).

      I was up to this post before I stop doing my yoga and that was when I was about 45 pounds heavier. Trust me what she's doing is excellent you may have to practice each little arm part several times even several times during the week before you can do the whole complete pose. And it may even take a month or so I'm to be able to do the pose in the entirety depending on flexibility andand how often you're doing yoga throughout the week.

      Very typical of people to think they can do these poses right away or with little delay. She does state that you can do these poses with easier variations in the beginning and it's understood OVER TIME be able to develop and do the full poses. Think of it as a lifelong mission rather than short term with practice weekly if not daily and see results over time. Good luck
