Oh my gosh, that was fabulous! I really appreciated your careful cueing. I realized it's been a long time since I found something new in Triangle. Thank you!

Rachel S Rachel S! That brings a huge smile to my face :) Can you share what caught your attention?

That's awesome, Nathan Briner! I will check it out. I think the thing that stood out was entering Triangle from Extended Side Angle, and the cueing around the hips. So good!

thankyou so much . i have a question about alignment in the standing poses

Hi Elizabeth H! Sounds like you had a great practice. What can I help you with in standing poses? 

Is there supposed to be a space between the lower lumbar and the mat while in Savasana? I normally do this pose with my knees bent and relaxed together, feet on mat... My lumbar has a dramatic curve to it- so when I relax on back, it takes awhile to settle fully and relax everything. I notice when I extend legs out straight and allow them to relax and fall apart from each other- my lower back space increases.

Michelle great question. Because the lumbar has a natural curve to it there will be some space under the lower back. But, there are variations to the depth of this curve between people and there are differences in body shapes so the space could be more or less visible. In your case with a more pronounced curve I recommend putting a bolster or two folded blankets under the calves to support the legs. The legs should be straight so you may have to push the bolster toward the feet if the knees are bent. 

Thanks so much for your last comment. I will take you up on the offer I am sure. 

David G- that is fantastic! Sounds like you’re on fire to learn and connect on many levels. That’s exactly what makes a great teacher. 

Hi, Nathan! Today I do feel my legs after this great practice! Thanks! Namaste! ☀️
