daniel, a couple of things could be happening here. If your hip mobility is limited in dog pose then keeping a straight leg will put a lot of pressure on the supporting leg hip flexors. In this case I suggest bending that leg a bit. 

Sooo good. Was expecting ho-hum about “ another tree pose” class but you brought fresh insight. Perfect balance between sweetness and strength. Gratitude!

Thank you Lisa 😀

I have very tight hips so i cannot bring my leg up to my thigh (yet). Is it ok that i start lower on the leg under the knee?

Loved the hip lifts. Man that was subtle but tough. Liked the idea of feeling my body in mountain pose on the ground first before balancing (attempts)

Wonderful challenge - through day 7 (in 8 days) and it is amazing how much stronger and confident I feel.  I've been lax on my yoga for the past year or so but this has helped me realize and wonder....why did I ever "quit"?  Thank you so much!  You are amazing to listen to and so clear in your direction.  Thank you!!

Jodi, very kind words thank you! Sounds like your practice and body have been reinvigorated! Glad to have you here on the challenge  Don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need any help or have any questions. Hope to hear from you again down the line 🙏

I am thrilled that I found this practice!  I have been doing yoga on a regular basis for about 3 years, and  today, in Day 1 of the Balance theme, you introduced me to TWO new positions!  Thank you for helping me find new space, freedom, and balance in my body.

mamarudd! Great to hear from you and welcome to the 30 day challenge! I loving hearing that your discovered some new poses and new ideas to add to your practice. I’m always here if you have a question or need any help with a pose. 

 Hi Nathan, a bit of backake in Navasana pose. I guess my abs are too weak. I will listen to my body and try again.
