In this episode, Giana and Bradshaw delve into the Crow Pose family, also referred to as Bakasana or Kakkasana. They kick off with a friendly debate about the pose's name and any associated confusion. Then, they explore the foundational pose for Crow, Chaturanga, discussing why Crow serves as an excellent introduction to arm balances and acts as a gateway to other low-flying variations. The hosts also share their teaching experiences, offering insights into providing variations tailored to different populations and skill levels. They also discuss the significance of challenging poses in the yoga journey, emphasizing how utilizing the practice's tools can aid in approaching difficulties with resilience. Alongside, they share anecdotes about studio changes and Bradshaw's discomfort with heat.

Most people consider arm balances and inversions challenging poses, but we think they're worth the effort.This week, I talk to Jason about his approach to teaching these popular poses, and how he breaks them down to make them more accessible for every student. We also share our newest mini-course (it's free!), which goes deep into one of the most foundational arm balances, Bakasana (also known as Crane Pose or Crow Pose).We talk about:* Why practice arm balances and inversions in the first place?* Crane Pose vs. Crow Pose - What's the difference?* The two most important poses to practice if you want to learn Bakasana* The role and movement of the shoulder blades in straight-arm Bakasana and a pose to practice to begin to get the action down* Why Jason thinks core strength might not be THE most important thing to focus on when learning arm balances (even though he concedes that it is important)* BONUS: Learn about Andrea's new therapeutic pumpkin carving practice.* EXTRA SPECIAL BONUS: Take Jason's FREE Bakasana Mini-Course on Yogaglo!Show notes: http://www.jasonyoga.com/podcast/episode1261.

20-minute intermediate crow-pose tutorial The post Ep. 49 – Bakasana, Crow Pose, Crane Pose appeared first on Adam Hocke Yoga.
Shed the old.... This is an INTENSE practice for those who have been practicing for at least 6 months. This practice includes Bakasana (crow) and Ekahaste Bhujasana (one leg over shoulder arm balance). Enjoy!
Amanda Botur loves challenging her students. In today's Quick Tip she provides an introduction to Bakasana, or, crow pose. This pose strengthens the arms, wrists, and abdominals and is also the perfect introduction to more advance arm balances. Try mixing this balance into your sun salutations when you move from forward fold to high plank. Knowing these fundamentals and incorporating them into your routine will lead to a stronger, safer, and healthier yoga practice. For full length classes, please visit www.yogatoday.com
As we step into spring and move forward transitioning from the darker days to the lighter days see if you can find some personal time to honor your process, your bod, your heart - basically your yoga. Notice what is coming to fruition and what still in a stage of evolution. My teachers have said to me in many ways that inside we all have potential that is like a bija (seed), which is filled with possibilities now take note of what the soil of your awareness is in which these seeds are being cultivated in. After going through my own process of teaching for 5 years and becoming a certified Anusara teacher, I have learned that there is not just one way to do anything that there are many ways honoring our way of unfolding that works for each of us. When we give ourselves permission to be, to nurture, to see where we are in the process we are able to find ease on and off the mat. Enjoy the beauty of spring and see in nature how each tree, bud and blade of grass expresses itself in its own way just as you do. Check out the interview with Damon and for a longer class about Spring with Elsie from Elsie's Yoga Class Sequence Level 2-3: Sukhasana Balasana - Extended Child Pose, Slow Transition to Downward Facing Dog Down Dog Split - Squared Hips then take Knee to Chest and Extend Back Plank Pose to Belly to Salambasana Down Dog to Uttanasana - moving 1/2 fwd 3X Urdvah Hastasana to Uttanasana Straight Leg Lunge to Twist then Straighten Leg for Parvritta Trikonasana Variation Vinyasa Vira II to Reverse Warrior back through Vira II then Clasp Arms Behind and Fold Fwd Ostrich Pose Vinyasa Uttanasana Malasana - Garland Pose Take a Squat (pls place a blanket under heels if lifted) Bakasana - Crane Pose (working core arms bent and straighten) Uttansana Urdvah Prasarita Eka Padasana Standing Splits to Handstand Uttanansa Down Dog Straight Leg Lunge with Shoulder under Knee Parsvottonasa Variation with Back Heel Lifted Uttansana Eka Pada Koundinyasana II Balasana done Extended Childs Pose Supta Padangustasana Supine Twist - Grape Vine LegsCore Work - Legs Lifted with Hands Behind Head then Lower Knees to Chest Savasana or Meditation Namaste! special thanks to elsie for her awesome pics... and to Robin from Inner Freedom
The yoga of Patanjali offers us Yoga Sutras including the 8 limbs of yoga. Within these 8 limbs are the Yamas (social inter-action with others) and Niyamas (inter-action we have with ourselves). There are 5 Yamas and 5 Niyamas making them kinda like the 10 commandments of Yoga. For this class I focused on 3 of the Niyamas - Tapas (effort), Svadhyaya (self-study) , and Ishvara Pranidhana (surrender to the divine). In life we mostly do, effort and forget to feel the connection to something bigger - when we take time to reflect or study we can see where we are with both. In yoga effort is important to get to the mat keep your arms strong in down dog but to leave space to soften even surrender to this greater energy. Through self-study on and off the mat using scriptures or any books that take you deeper one can see there tendency and make a choice to see balance of these actions.
