✨ Let’s Talk About Crow Pose (Bakasana)! ✨
If you’ve ever watched someone float into Crow Pose and thought “No way I can do that,” you should absolutely give it a try. Crow is one of those poses that looks intimidating but is actually beginner friendly.
1. Start Low + Steady
Begin in a deep squat with your feet slightly apart. Place your hands on the floor about shoulder-width distance, fingers spread wide like you’re gripping the ground.
2. Create a Shelf for Your Knees
Bend your elbows slightly and place your knees high on the backs of your arms—closer to your armpits makes balancing easier.
3. Shift, Don’t Jump
Gently lean your weight forward, looking slightly ahead of you (don’t look down!). Maybe one toe lifts… then maybe the other. Tiny shifts count!
4. Engage Your Core
Squeeze your belly, keep your arms active, and trust your balance. Even if you just lift your toes for half a second—you did it!
5. Use a Pillow
If you’re worried about falling forward, place a pillow in front of you. Instant confidence boost!
✨ Remember:
Crow Pose is not about perfection. It’s about play, curiosity, and celebrating every little bit of progress. Everyone wobbles. Everyone falls. That’s part of the fun!
If you try it—no matter how it goes—don’t be embarrassed to share your picture in the comments. We’re all learning, and seeing others try is inspiring, not embarrassing. Let’s cheer each other on!
