Hey bro how to be in this pose for 5mins at least give me some tricks to hold on to this posture….
Omg how perfect! I KNOW I don’t do it properly since it always hurts my low back. Thanks so much for this! ����������♀️felt it for sure in all those muscles
Thanks, Kassandra! Another great tutorial very helpful. I wonder if you could explain how to do Malasana properly some time in the future. It’s one the most challenging for me I really doubt that I do it properly:)
Namaste. Very nice and detailed explanation. I like the thigh rotation aligment point.
I would love to see a kapotasana pose tutorial like this! I feel like I’ve been a little bit off when I try it:)
I had no idea there were so many subtle things going on in chair pose. Awesome tutorial, really well explained!
I loved this tutorial and it will help me a lot. Have you done a tutorial on how to do a pigeon pose? Thanks Kassandra
Hello Kassandra. Very nice video. More videos like this please. Could you make a video about the butterfly pose and eagle? Thank you!
“Open your taint!” A cue powerlifters use instead of opening their knees in the squat position.
Welp, I’ve been doing “feet hip-width distance apart” wrong for a year and a half! I always wondered but you’re the first instructor I’ve followed to explain what it means. Thank you for clarifying so now I can start doing it the right way.
Thank you for this tutorial, love it! It is one of my least favorite poses. Maybe after this video it won’t be for much longer:D I would love to know more about puppy pose and shoe lace pose. Kisses Sara
Thanks Kassandra, for explaining chair pose in detail. It’s not my favourite but I’ve had a difficult day and it was lovely to focus on something physical and forget the desk job. I really like the shot bite size classes too.
When I sink down, I can be tilted no floating ribs weight in heels, but then i look down and i can see half my foot instead of just toes. Is this right?
Hi, I am already suffering badly with the flatfeet along with really bad heelpain, kneepain thigh joint pain, doctor has asked me to wear my shoes all the time with a flatfeet support pad in the shoe. Can i try this excercise with shoes? Because you are doing bare feet and i can’t even walk one step without my shoes. So can i do with my shoes,, will it help me?
