This is really great! I’ve been meaning to get into more Yoga and this helps a lot.
Great video! Very entertaining! Left a like as always ☺️ #DreamTeamSupport
Sir, can u suggest some asnas for cervical spondolysis and the asnas which are contraindicated in this problem.
Stretching the ankle is the USP of this asana which helps to get us into better posture of the asana….Thank you for mentioning that here.. thanx again for all those informative videos…..
Nah!I did -45 lbs last 2 month.Go to hawght.so\#QhEOkGE

As per this we must pull the toes with our hand upto the level of the ear.
Thanks for helping us get more flexible and connecting with our breath
I apologize for objectifying and sexualizing the female form.
Sir, please be specific about breaths… Thank you for the video. Keep it going:)
My legs don’t come back much; I can grab them but not comfortably; what can you do (other than this) to increase that flexibility?
YOU ARE MY YOGA SAVIOR! I am not even kidding it makes me so happy that you are here for us because there are sometimes things that I just do not get! Especially with this pose I didn’t even realize what I was doing wrong till I watched your video. <3<3<3<3
Yhhh im kinda thinking that this is gonna take a few months of prep for me lol i was straining so hard to pull the front up and the back was a modest 2 inches off the ground lol. Ill get there,………. mount eventually
Do we breathe normally while doing the pose or hold the breath?
Indeed valuable suggestion by Anisha P to have contradictions, which Art of Living includes in its monthly publication Rishimukh http://www.artoflivingmagazine.com/
Good demo, but how about adding its benefits n contradictions also
Hey guys I hope you enjoy this video on dhanurasana bow pose for beginners (how to do bow pose) “bow pose for beginners

Getting a lot more spinal mobility with this video, Angelina.
Ì love all of ur video…. u r the best yoga guru ������
Namaste �� Sir
Your video is nice, I m having difficulty to watch your video because of the subtitles in english that you have put, I m not able to watch your pose correctly, please either shift little up the subtitle so that I can clearly see the asana that you r performing
It’s so artful and beautiful looking when you’re fully in this pose ^_^
I love your thoughtful message. Very timely for me. Great instruction!
Thank you. I enjoyed this instruction, it really helped achieve the pose better.
Much better when watching real instructions, the stretch in the thighs is just huge with this pose. I want to learn more new poses. Gosh, to get such a lift you have to really work at it.
I just wanted to say how much I love your tutorials! I am new yoga instructor and I have learned so much watching and listening to your explanations of the poses! Good job!!!
I do this and it helps with digestion. Just half a minute a day is sufficient for me.
great stuff, many steps and variations. For us guys its a difficult pose because of all the muscles in the shoulders, This will take time but you have made it workable imo. Also all the early steps are totally legit so anyone can get benefit even if they can’t even get into bow. Thank you.
After working on this for weeks, I finally FINALLY nailed this pose. Another milestone reached! OWN IT!!!
Celest, what happened to your videos on Natarajasana and Gherandhasana? I can’t find them:( and regularly use them as a prompt to prepare for those poses! Please bring them back as they are so helpful!

What do you recommend if your anterior hip bone hurts on both sides while doing the bow pose?
Hi Celest! I’m struggling to roll my shoulder forward it feels like it’s so far away! Can you recommend some poses that will fast forward this progress for me please? thank you!:)
Now subbed! Thank you Angelina for demonstrating these poses.
This was such an awesome video!! Seriously helped me with my hand grip!! Xx
Where did you get that strap? Your videos are awesome! Thank you!!!
I Just subscribed to your channel.
After watching your video I have to tell you,
You Are Absolutely Amazing. Definitely an Inspiration to take my practice that much further.
Thank You for showing/explaining the mechanics of the poses & how to get there.
Keep on Rockin!!!
I am studying RYT yoga. As far as my knowledge, for this pose, knees must touch together. But if you are not comfortable, then you can keep it apart.
How much often should this be practicing and how much time to stand it, sets?
How many times we can do per day? Also is there any duration available for holding the legs.
Why none of the videos on YouTube describe the breathing while getting in the poses and then breathing in the pose? Why none of the videos concentrate on warmup before a asanas. Please do get these things as well? One more request can you also have videos with Hindi language. I believe there are many people out there who might not understand English. Having the videos in Hindi will benefit many people in India.
Thank you so much Celeste! I’ve been always struggling with this pose but now I can finally do it! Yay!!
Does anyone else struggle with balance grabbing one foot at a time with the flipped grip? I think I have the flexibility to get into the full pose but I find it impossible to lift one foot without rolling onto my side and then it’s impossible to grab the other one! Anyone have any tips?
We taught that your feet should be together in that posture…
This is in my highschool gym and I can not do it but I’m gonna keep working at it
Kindly add in your videos, effect of Asana on body such as nervous system, respiratory system, cardio vascular system and mainly endocrine system (release of secretions and effect of hypothalamus, pituitary gland, pineal gland, thyroid, adrenal glands, ovaries, testes, etc.) on functioning of body, mind and spirit. Preparatory asanas, current asana and contra afterward asanas. Where and how to concentrate at the final stage of climax of asana, pratyahar, dharana, breathing during Asana. Kindly acknowledge. With regards.
