If you can understand this for yourself- organically. You have understood everything there is to know about yoga. Both the science & tradition 🙏🏾🧘🏾‍♀️✔️

Yoga. Creating a refuge for man since the dawn of time 🫶🫶🏾 Or at least since the 1940’s 🤨

My take on arm balances is pretty straight forward. Like most athletic challenges, repititiin a is everything. DONT treat each failed rep as a loss - rather a lesson. Your body will always tell you where it went wrong 🧠🧐 - we just have to slow down enough to pay attention 👍🏽✔️
I have a FREE Arm Balance PLAYBOOK on my website (link in bio 👆🏽) where I walk you through everything and even show you setups, variations and alternatives too. Yes, including PEACOCK 🦚 🫣👊🏾
Go check it out. also makes an appearance on this free course and adds her expertise too 🫶🏽

With an outtake clips from Zaccy and the end 👆🏽
I made this video with Zaccy to visualise the story of the master and the cup ☕️
The mind, like the cup is overflowing with ideas and opinions. When real education (especially in the case of learning Yin Yoga) - is about emptying your cup. Yin yoga really is a complete Mindset shift 🧐🧠
If your are intrigued, link in bio. Our next cohort stats May 16 & 17 🙏🏾🙏🏾🫶🏽

Two versions of triangle pose 👆🏽
The top version (the one most of us were taught) is passive. You’re basically hanging into your joints. Not technically wrong - just not doing much. Or perhaps, for some, more harm than good 😤🧐.
The bottom is more biomechanically sound 👊🏾 This version that I always teach is entered from side angle. More athletic & 10x more muscular engagement 🧠👍🏽

Harder to get into for sure. But worth the extra effort.
👇🏽
If you want to do yoga still when you are 90 - Bend your front knee first. Engage your core like you’re preparing to take a light punch. Then actively straighten the front leg whilst keeping that core awareness. That’s it. That shift changes everything about how the pose feels and what it does for the body.

Now, if you disagree, that’s completely fine. But your argument needs to be science-based. Not “well that’s just how it’s always been taught.” That’s not an argument. That’s a habit. Time for a mindset shift bru 😃

Is your mind too full to learn something new? 😤🧠🤷🏾‍♂️

My Yin teacher training changes everything. How you teach breathing 😮‍💨 how you teach the poses 🧘🏾‍♀️, how you see yoga completely 🧐
The only pre-requisite - come with an empty cup.

It’s a common misconception that all yoga poses are about finding flexibility. And this mindset in standing poses does cause more harm than good.
🧐
Just falling into shapes will actually make you weaker. You have to really work with your muscles - that stability you create will protect you for life.

The unspoken benefit of Chaturanga. More than just a transmission.

I’m not really grumpy… just misunderstood 🫣😤
You will be surprised how many people tell me they hate the side angle pose. Most often it’s because it doesn’t feel right. Change the technique and what you get is one of the best standing poses for optimal long term physical health 👊🏾🙏🏾
