Hi Adell! I've been taught to jump back (e.g., from crow/handstand) to chaturanga however, when I went through my teacher training a few years ago, we were taught to jump back to plank, then lower to chaturanga. The rationale for this was that it is safer for the shoulders - I've also heard this can be jarring on the lower back. Just wanted to know your thoughts on this and how to land when jumping back. Thank you 😊

If you’re unable to bind (whether it’s mobility related or body proportions):
- clasping the hands isn’t always necessary (I often avoid clasping to keep my muscles active). The act of reaching for the bind will give you the muscle and neurological activation in a better way than if you can clasp and are able to relax the muscles
- for bird of paradise though where it helps you hold up your leg, it may be useful to use a strap or grab onto clothing to help anchor your leg in place. APOLOGIES ON MY PART for not offering that more often!

If you have a big toe that gives you issues, try this. I made this with Judith Bridges Soto in mind but thought I’d share with everyone 😇

Thought I’d share this from the poet Andrea Gibson on Self Love:
✨✨✨
Through this time of self-loving, I have discovered that the phrase Self Love not only an inadequate way to describe the experience, but it may be a roadblock in the way of truly knowing what self-love is.
When I am feeling what we call self-love, I feel the self fall away, and the love is not aimed at an Andrea-shaped target, but instead it is pointing everywhere, in every direction, at the whole of us, the collective, of which I am a part. In fact, only when I am experiencing this love does my sense of being separate from others reveal itself to be an illusion.

Love getting to meet MWA in real life!! So awesome to have you in class here in Vienna, Sonja!!

Because Bird of Paradise is a pose that requires as much strength as flexibility, tomorrows new Strong flow will help you develop the chutzpah needed in your legs to get that standing balance shape!
