Puppy press progress: I can’t explain the feeling but when I went up into this one, it just felt light. My hands felt as steady as my feet and it was bliss for 30 seconds.

So many students this week absolutely loved this flow, which has an equal mix of mobility and balance/strength (and yet there were only two vinyasas because chaturanga doesn’t need to be the most challenging part of a flow!).

Caveat: videos have need sped up to fit under a minute but the slower you do these, the better! I like to do this to songs that are 130BPM and listen to the slow beat!

PART 1: Mat Sculpt (Pilates · Yoga · Bodyweight). Focus on glute/core stability with a strong lateral line (glute med work) + shoulder focus. Slow transitions. Long holds. Constant band tension.

The flow:
• Banded arm plank pushups
• Bird dog knee taps → 3-leg plank knee thrusts
• Banded scorpion pushups + optional step-outs
• Gate pose + banded twists & pulls + abduction hover
• Extended threaded needle → pigeon (band at thighs)
• Banded reverse tabletop + butterfly pulses
• Side knee plank + banded fire hydrant lifts
• Full plank step-outs (or knee plank option)
• Down dog → 3-leg dog → abduction rotations
• Wild thing hip lift pulses (front & back)
• Forearm side kicks + circles
• Half gomukhasana fold
→ Other side

PART 2: Standing Strength (Weights). Slow, controlled strength with a glute med + shoulder stability focus.
The sequence:
• Slow skater lunge + 90° isometric bicep curls
• WLFF + single-leg abduction lifts
• Leaning goddess + outward pulses
• Leaning pyramid → tricep kickback → lateral circles
• Isometric shoulder press + curtsy squat + pulses
• Step-outs → standing abduction pulses
• Wide-leg RDL + front raises

PART 3: Mat Slow Down (Pre-Cooldown). Glute burnout before rest.
The flow:
• Single-leg banded bridge thrusts
• Banded mermaid + abduction lifts
• Good-morning oblique crunches (tiny)
• Criss Cross bicycles

Side note: warmed up with baby lateral camels into threaded needle and cat/cows; foot the cooldown, we added happy baby and twists. We had a couple of cardio barre style breaks in between the standing sides.

Eka Pada Koundinyasana II (Flying Splits) — how I introduce it:

1️⃣ Start in Malasana: crow + peacock mechanics for support.

One side works like flying frog — a crow variation where the knee is outside the elbow instead of on the tricep.

The other side works like half peacock — the elbow pins under the hip to support the back leg lifting.

I like this because you don’t have to worry about hamstrings yet: both legs stay bent, the hips don’t need to be super open, & you’re very supported.

2️⃣ Floor work: lizard → splits orientation
Next, we come down to open the hips in our lizard and splits.

Your splits don’t need to be deep, but you do need to learn the hip angle. If the right leg is forward, lean the hips slightly to the left so the groin starts to turn toward the wall instead of the floor. That’s the same orientation the pose has once it’s on the arms.

3️⃣ Blocks under the hands give you more height and more time.

From lizard, set one hand on a block, lean forward, and let the back of the thigh rest on the upper arm. Lean into the half-peacock arm, reach the chest forward, and think about turning the hips into that splits orientation. Lift one leg at a time (I recommend keeping them bent first and eventually straightening legs once your body understands the balance).

4️⃣ Progress when it’s ready
Over time, the legs straighten more and the elbow that was supporting the hip can move outside the torso and the pose opens up more.

If you want to break this down in real time, I’m teaching an arm balance workshop this Saturday — you can still sign up online.
