Ｋａｋａｓａｎａ － Ｔｈｅ Ｃｒｏｗ

Perseverance pays dividends

I remember the first time a teacher ever demonstrated this pose to me. It was at TriYoga in London, a men’s yoga class, early in my yoga journey. The teacher was telling us about how certain poses were much more inclined towards women’s bodies but certain strength-using poses were much more men’s poses

He then started to demonstrate a perfect Kakasana and invited us to try

I had very little core strength and minimal body awareness and I could not get my head around how my arms could support the weight of my body

I just kept collapsing in a puddle of limbs and sadness!

But as I began to practice regularly my strength began to grow and my ability to target individual areas of my body and defined muscle groups increased until one day, et voila!, both my legs lifted from the ground

I keep this knowledge of how, with perseverance, I was able to change myself with me when I attempt poses that are still beyond my abilities. I know that through dedication and practice I can change and shift

What poses did you think inaccessible to you and what are you working on at the moment?

Yoga with props in today’s Yin Yang class. Salamba Sirsasana (supported shoulder stand with chair and bolster) a both relaxing and invigorating pose followed by Savasana with our new lavender filled eye masks. Both bolsters and eye masks available in the studios and in the boutique. A perfect end to a perfect practice 🧘🏻

The Two Fingered Salute ( ) in Adho Mukha Savanasana.
Ever since I spotted a guy behind me in a hot class in Clapham doing this, maybe 15 years ago, I’ve been working on it and now here I am.
It’s great for building hand and wrist strength which in turn is great for all the arm balances, which if you’ve ever been to one of my classes you’ll know feature regularly!
Start slowly, just on the tips of all 5 digits and then work on reducing how many you need, little by little. Let me know how you get on and good luck!

Not that we always follow our own advice but set that intention, eh?

A wonderful Saturday day out to the Egyptian Postal Museum. It’s a memorial frozen in time to a service that will soon be history. So many wonderful artefacts in an enormous and grand building, you can’t believe that you are just minutes from the mayhem of Attaba. Do yourself a favour and make a visit.

Jon Hopkins... that's what's on my mind.
'Ritual' is a work of staggering power and beauty.
Go and listen now.
You have your orders.
