For everyone in class diligently working on developing their transitions to and from seated postures. In either direction, to or from seated, glue the thighs to the abdomen and tuck the knees toward the chest. And repeat...again and again and again. Working to make each attempt better than the last. It will eventually become almost effortless. #niyama3 #tapas #ashtanga #ashtangayoga #eightlimbsofyoga #8limbsofyoga #vinyasa #vinyasayoga #igyoga #yoga #yogatransitions #yogateacher #yogatutorial #yogavideo #yogaeverydamnday #yogaeveryday #detroityoga #michiganyoga #tostillthemindisyoga #payattention #svadhyaya (at Detroit Yoga) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwc3GGygBWR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6jkydybbpwvr

For those working on their tuck exit from handstand to chaturanga. Tuck the knees to abdomen, then kick the feet back as you bend the arms to land softly in #chaturanga . Saving the feet from being kicked down into the floor. #ashtanga #ashtangayoga #vinyasa #vinyasayoga #igyoga #yoga #yogatransitions #yogateacher #yogatutorial #yogavideo #yogaeverydamnday #yogaeveryday #detroityoga #michiganyoga #tostillthemindisyoga #payattention #svadhyaya (at Detroit Yoga) https://www.instagram.com/p/BurFcv6AtIC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qwnk3f9u1yvl

I was asked in class the other day about details to focus on for polishing up this transition. Try sending the hips/butt high and keep the thighs glued to the ribs/chest as you lower the hips/butt down and the legs through. That, and deliberate, whole hearted practice, 1000’s of times each year. #patience #persistence #consistency #commitment #hardwork #ashtanga #ashtangayoga #vinyasa #vinyasayoga #igyoga #yoga #yogatransitions #yogateacher #yogatutorial #yogavideo #yogaeverydamnday #yogaeveryday #detroityoga #michiganyoga #tostillthemindisyoga #payattention #svadhyaya (at Detroit Yoga) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuC2zZogStb/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hdcwjhff3tly

Achieving a headstand isn’t that special, it’s what it takes to get there. #patience #persistence #consistency #commitment #hardwork #focus #concentration #ashtanga #ashtangayoga #vinyasa #vinyasayoga #yoga #detroityoga #michiganyoga #tostillthemindisyoga #payattention #svadhyaya (at Detroit Yoga) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuAEGx_AMDJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jlrknwk6xyb1
