The Upside-Down Owl

When planning a class, I always make sure I have a few check lists available around me so I don't forget anything important.
This one is for my asanas, so I don't forget something important, all the spine movements, or an inversion. Trying to have a good plan from the beginning helps me to have options for creativity and spontaneity during the class! :)

And I try as well for every Asana I choose to have two or three options to make it accessible. Mat and chair, but also maybe a different pose with similar benefits. It takes more time, but I don't want to do my best so every student feels included.

What's your check list? :)

Here my version of the sun salutation on a chair.
I am not a big fan of folding forward on a chair so I do it only once. It is a bit shorter but adapted to my body! :)
Thank you and for teaching me so many different variations of yoga poses and sun salutations!

If you want to get the video in French or in Norwegian, don't hesitate to ask me! :)

Most important reminder! :)

It’s really that simple. If it’s not accessible, it’s not yoga.

These are universal spiritual teachings which are based on the idea that we all share the same spirit.

So, the way we practice, and in particular the way we teach, need to reflect that understanding.

No one is less worthy or important than anyone else. Our individuality and differences can be celebrated even as we recognize our inherent interconnectedness.

What do you think?
