How to do Salamba Sarvangasana | Supported Shoulder Stand in Ashtanga Yoga
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 окт 2024
- Though it might not feel calming at first, shoulder stand is a great inversion that allows your body and nervous system to settle as you near the end of your practice. Learning how to do it properly will help you access those restorative benefits!
In this tutorial, we show you how to do SALAMBA SARVANGASANA \ SUPPORTED SHOULDER STAND from Ashtanga's Closing Sequence Series. You’ll learn the traditional vinyasa cues as you see how to get into this pose with a lot of guidance and step by step direction. You’ll understand why we want to bring elbows in towards each other and how to do so, where to place your hands, and how to align your hips above the shoulders. You’ll also learn where and how to distribute the weight so you’re not collapsing into the neck, with modifications to create more space there. We’ll show common mistakes and how to avoid them so you can practice safely.

I've done a lot of real-life yoga classes and online videos as well, and nowhere before have I seen this level of thorough explanation of how to actually do poses correctly. I don't think it's as helpful if the teacher just adjusts your body without explaining, whereas with your instructions I can actually self-correct and self-improve. I wish more yoga teachers would go there as part of their classes ✨ Thank you!
I use at least 3 folded blankets at the top of my mat for my shoulders and it helps keep my neck natural curve. Most people would benefit from that.
The tip about pushing your hips forward and your feet back is so helpful! I feel like I can never get the alignment just right but this will help me make a better mental checklist when in the pose.
Started Ashtanga 6 months ago and this pose was just added to my practice (along with the rest of the shoulder poses). After 3 breaths, my left hand and forearm started tingling more and more. They remained numb for the rest of the day! I’m nervous about doing it again but based on your excellent explanation, I think I might be collapsing on my neck (and spinal cord), and will work on that. Thank you!!
You are just so funny and uplifting and a joy, really, to watch and to learn from! Thank you and greetings from Finland!
Thank you for this excellent tutorial. I can do this pose with less than perfect form fairly easily, but very few tutorials are as clear as yours in explaining what I need to do to improve my form and what restricts me from achieving this.🙏
Thanks a lot for this tutorial, guys. I weigh 110kg and i have difficulty to be standing completely upright, but with these tips, there will be definitely some changes.
thank you so, so, so much for your excellent videos!!! I am watching the alignment tutorials on the primary (half) series asanas religiously many times to practice at home in a healthy way.
If you could come around to matsyasana and uttana padasana also, I would appreciate it a lot because i am unsure about the placement of the head and the position/feeling in the back.
thank you a million for this amazing resource! 🙏💟 you guys are wonderful!!!
Awesome, thank you both, god bless🙏
Lovely video. I stopped doing this pose several years ago, as I always came away with a sore neck… I will give this a try and maybe bring it back into my routine ❤
Hi ı fınd ypur tips very important and ı like the way you tell and show so ı keep to it
Excellent! and I need to use blankets under shoulders for support. Yes, I am an Iyengar practitioner and just love quality instruction regardless of our respective tradition! You guys are rock stars! Thanks!
Thank you - i used this to teach a very large YTT group in CR - wonderful tips for helping my students to learn to be able to do this quickly and SAFELY! I love your gift to the yoga world of your deep knowledge - PRANAM ::
Jelena, da li mozete jedan video posvetiti znojenju? Zanima me iskustvo i saveti profesionalaca u situacijama proklizavanja, ispadanje iz poze usled znoja, nekad bude tesko uhvatiti palac itd. Mozda je smesna tema ali dosta cesto mi pravi problem pri vezbanju. Od velike ste mi pomoci pri samostalnom prakticiranju joge, hvala puno.
I wait eagerly for your videos. They are always very helpful. Greetings from Lebanon!
Thank you so much for your video 🙏
Clear explanation I love the way you teach❤
I would like to see how to achieve straddle pose ❤
Not only are you excellent teachers but very kind persons as well
Hello there, Thank you so much for your informative videos, they are superb. However in this one, I wanted to see how you came out of the pose safely, as I often see people just throwing themselves down in relief? Any tips. Linda
I would like to see how you come into bujapidasana.
I find that my breathing is restricted when I do shoulder stands. Is this normal, or is there any tips on how to correct.
Always listen to a woman on her period. Such good advice!, thanks for a great tutorial, I personally struggle with reading about alignment and ashtanga principals and your lessons are very helpful in furthering my practice. Thank you for awesome videos, and keep the Connie content coming.
Yay! I would love to see the floating lotus pose too!
Am doing daily. Your yutorial is also helping me a lot. Thanks.
You are the best!!! my Yoga Ashtanga teacher didn't mentioned about free neg and space for hamster ;-)
It would be great to see an explanation and break down of urdhva padmasana :)
Love it Guys , explained very intelligently
Great video. Please one on how to sit in Vajrasana.
i love Mr. Khani ! ❤Thanks for the tutorial, teachers.
Thank you. Great detailed explanation which helped me a lot.
Dear David and Jelena thank you very much for this new video, so useful as always. I am so grateful and l follow you every time. GOD BLESS YOU. Cecilia
Thank you! This video is very helpfull 🥰
Thank you so much! Lots of love to you both 🥰
Always psyched to see a new vid from you!
thanks for the video! and thanks for the yoga drishti point instruction.... I really improved my downward dog by using the drishti point you regogmended in the downward dog video.... cheers smile
Incredible knowledge, combined with deep passion
Thank you ❤
Thank you so much for this lovely video. You both are so positive- I love learning from you 😊
Love the quality content on the channel! I liked the depth and detail, very helpful to deepen a practice and make it yours.
I would love to see more in-depth explanation on specific asanas, how to get into the pose correctly, what signs and sensations to look for in the body to confirm that you are doing it right. Especially if you cannot attempt the full pose yet, due to strength or flexibility constraints, you can still do the baby versions of them with confidence that you are doing it right.
A lot of the time I hard to follow a fast paced and physically challenging Ashtanga sequence, knowing that there are specific poses that I am not doing completely correctly, but not having the knowledge or know-how of how to self correct in those positions.
One of my favorite Poses , Thank You !
Thank you 🙏 great instruction
❤thank you very much for your tutorials 🙏.You are great teachers.
Can you make some tutorial about breathing?Alignment-bandha-breath?Chest breathing? Diafragmal movement...What is useful. Thanks 🙏❤️
Another great tutorial, thank you. Would love to see one on Marichyasana B & D as I find the half lotuses quite a challenge
Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
Could you put some light on hips opening or closing in urdhva dahnurasana? Thank youuu
Love the tip about the towel and also watching your hip crease! Extremely helpful 😊
Wise words! Thanks for the tutorial, teachers.😉🤍🤍 I suck at this pose because my shoulders are tight, but I’ll keep trying to perfect my Salamba sarvangasana! 🙃
Thank you explain point to point very useful video 😊
Thank you, useful. May I ask Jelena, what brand is your top? It's so hard to find a decent crop top with a high enough neckline so that you don't fear your chest falling out in inversions!
Great tutorial, thank you so much for this! Although I have been practising for years I think I never understood shirshasana completely till now. Maybe you could make a tutorial on Navasana as well..?
This was very helpful - thank you! 🧡
Brilliant thank you!
You have a 2 hour workshop in your site on key alignment
May I know which Asana involved?
Mr. Kani!
Mr. Connie !
I always do this when my nose is constipated.
Hello...are you taking online classes?
🙏🙏🙇♀️🙇♀️
Why would anyone be offended by props? I heard ty landrum talk about "etiquette breach" and matty ezraty being hated because she allowed props. I find it too harsh
Aver cuando hacéis clases en español, 🙏🙏🙏💜💜💜💜
