that's simply brilliant. BRILLIANT. thank you
Thank you
Thank you for the tip. I have always stuggled in BKSN. Will try this and see how it pans out ❤❤
This is so Illuminating....Thank you so much! You have made it so clear and easy to understand. I immediately know what I am doing wrong and cannot wait to try it out! Thank You again!
High-quality content always... Amazing
Dios mio!! Es la primera vez que puedo hacer bakasana y todo gracias a esta instrucción. Tienes una fan
Espero decir eso en unos días más!! Namaskar!
Thanks AGAIN Jason - The breakdown of these balances/concepts were clear in my mind when I listened via podcast, but after seeing it here it's like I can see the future! Peace
Oh so timely. I am strong enough, but I sometimes lift my feet and fall backwards. Now I know why! Thank you, Jason.
You're welcome, Mary.
I've listened to all the "teachers companion" podcasts...now, I'm catching up on "watching". I see NOW that I'm not placing hands forward enough in eka pada galavasana to get the forward motion like I do in bakasana. Thanks!!
Thx so much.. Great tips.. Now i know where i went wrong.. Namaste
You're welcome!
For the past two years, it has been my goal to get into Bakasana. I think the physical attributes are there, but the mental attribute lags behind. This breakdown may be just what I need. The physics of where the point of balance is: so obvious, but never really sunk in until now. No more of the feet flapping for me. Thanks Jason.
Best way I've ever heard it explained. Thanks!
Really chuckled when you said “biffed it up”. Beautiful expression. Feels straight out of the ‘50s
Muchísimas gracias por estas maravillosas enseñanzas. 🙏
Thank you very much Jason, the best class I have ever receive!
I will let you know how did it worked.
Thanks Jason for this video. I like your instructions. In my case, I cue students to go up in Bakasana so they keep that sensation of growing and not to get stuck in the pose. In some way, teaching them to also lift up is away to keep the energy going in different directions like “ push down on the mat, while you grow from your back and your weight goes forward”. What do you think?
So helpful! You articulate things like no other! Thank you for this content.
The best explanations of bakasana... Thank you.
Very nice, but you do kakasana... bakasana is crane pose, straight arms... I always teach it with the explanation to lean forward until the feet lift on their own. After a 3 second hold, you can lift the feet towards the hips.
At least you try to explain. Most teachers just say get into crow without explaining or correcting/providing tips
Wonderful, you are a great teacher man!
Love this thank you

#GREETINGS #MASTER...
BAKASANA is 1 of my FAVS & I "own" it to Laura Burkhart who I have practiced lots of it with her online CLASSES & PRACTICES. & yes...I was a lot in the tiptoes sh*t until I learned it correctly & better understand it NOW with you.
1 thing is for sure...I shouldnt put lots of body lotion bfr my yoga practices principally if Im gonna do BAKASAN or any other yoga poses where my arms will be the "pole" of my body balance. :)
Thank you so much for your knowledge shared with us.
Im kind of "upset" that this AMAZING SERIES is close to ending. Until I get my things ready for a YOGA CLASS, Im studying + learning + having all the skills & knowledge I can for free.
So thank You, JASON CRANDELL & also to ANDREA for sharing it.
xoxo.
God bless us.
NAMASTE.
#AKAPAGAgolavasana isnt a pose that I will practice or even put on my yoga practices to much unless I am practicing YOGA with somebody else & it is called to do.
Im going to YIN YOGA & VYNASA as a YOGA INSTRUCTOR.
abuja pidasana is more like counting 5seconds without "biffing up" (lol) & its better than nothing.
Thank you❤️❤️
you're welcome!
Really enjoyed this! I’m still working on Eka Pada Bakasana - will bear this in mind. Thanks
Thanks, Marcie!
bro just blasts out all these crazy poses haha
I try.....
Is it more triceps on the arm balances? I can’t balance on my hand, not stronger on my upper body;(
With regards to strength in the upper body, honestly, it's the entire shoulder-girdle--especially the front of the shoulders and chest.
