[@joyjscp]

Great info. I look forward to this practice as this is a difficult pose for me. I am also looking for a slow flow.

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Hi Joyjscp,
Hope that class helped. The slow flow noted! Blessings. X

Unfortunately, if the student wants do close his chest, he will. Elbows down or to the side, they close. It’s distressing to watch them sometimes.

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Dear Cati, this is true but with a dedicated teacher he will begin to see the benefits one day. Once that happens no turning back. Curiosity and interest will help to transform. As teachers patience and compassion is a must. Much love and respect.X
