Day1yoga

Day1yoga Found of the Day1Yoga Method. It was then that she began to schedule around her yoga practice, and her life of late nights and unhealthy habits did a 180.

Drawn to the elusive peacefulness and glow that so many yoga practitioners seemed to have, while connecting with yogic philosophy, Day Christensen took up the practice of yoga in 2004. Starting out, she took classes that fit her schedule, but quickly became drawn to the Mysore style practice of Ashtanga yoga, where students were taught in a relatively silent room with one on one instruction. There, in this environment, she recognized that the student’s potential for growth superseded what she had experienced in other styles of yoga that utilized the more typical “guided” method of teaching. After immersing herself in Ashtanga and the Mysore method, taking trips to Mysore, India to study where the practice was born within the lineage of those who created it, on her third trip to India, Day was given the blessing to teach as an Authorized Level 2 teacher. However, shortly after that time, suffering from persistent back pain, Day found that the system with its hierarchy of postures and repetitive movements could actually be more harmful than helpful. Through the process and years of learning to heal and recover from back pain, Day finally was able to break free of the cookie cutter method of giving all students the same sequences of postures meant to be learned and repeated 6 days a week, sometimes for years and years on end with no variation in asanas or movement patterns. With this new perspective due to her own pain caused by repetitive movement, she recognized that the system of learning yoga asanas can be improved: groups of asanas should be given according to each student’s current and developing postural needs. “The how” being the Mysore Method of one on one instruction where each person in the room is able to work according to their own needs, ability, and pace, was and is the most effective way to learn and grow. But “the what” of specific series and order of postures MUST be re-assessed. Thus, The DAY1YOGA Method was born: A tailored and customizable practice, minus posture- or series-hierarchy, (zero delineation between “advanced” and “beginner” students), just students, people with issues, all there for the healing and strengthening modality that yoga should be.

Train technique… for a short amount of time… with an intense amount of focus…
-
Most people train movements for a long amount of time with a little bit of focus.
-
Are you ready to change the paradigm and do something way more effectively and way more efficiently or are you married to your old ways…?
I understand investment bias. And I understand stubbornness. I’ve been there. It’s not a sin or a crime to do better when you know better… you don’t have to feel guilty about changing the way you practice… remember why you started- it wasn’t for the practice - it was always for and about you. Somehow along the way- you mixed up your identity with the practice and allowed it to be the most important thing. But it is not and it never can or will be. Your health your growth your fitness your goals… that is what matters - not the means by which you choose to achieve them.

PIKE PUSH- harder than it looks- amazingly applicable to directly 75% of the handstand strength, skills, and transitions, …indirectly the other 25%
-
If you are not training push ups as a regular part of your handstand training you are seriously missing out on a game changer and a huge component of skill acquisition.

Do you train push ups - yes or no

An ode to spring and St. Patrick, Patron Saint of Ireland, which is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. 💚
There are over 50 types of clover, but don’t we love the ones with heart shaped leaves the best?
The four-leaf clover is very rare with a probability of finding one is at a ratio of 1:100,000.
The four-leaf clover is caused by a mutation from the three-leaf mostly caused by environmental or genetic reasons.
There are 5 leaf clovers, and if you have ever happened upon a 4 leaf, take a look around to see if it was just a 5 leaf that went missing a leaf from wind or under foot.
Back to handstands shortly. ☘️
