Hi Kathy, so good to be back on your yoga class, had a hip injury that prevented me from practicing. Thank you so much. You are still the best Iyengar teacher online. 💕

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Hi Alma, nice to see you are back. How is the hip healing coming?
All my best. ❤️

[@almalouw7007]

Hi Kathy, it's good to be back. Struggling with one hip, especially pigeon pose, but i dont have tight hips, and my warrior poses, so I try not to over do, nor under do. 💕

Hi Kathy, thank you for the video! What can I use instead of bolster? Does it have to have a certain length or firmness? Thanks again!

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

What will you use the bolster for? You can also roll 2-3
firm blanket, use firm pillows or a combination depending on the
posture. Tell me more. 🙏🏻

[@anandhis2507]

I am 50 this year , can I start head stand please?

[@DesaYogiIyengarYoga]

Dear Anandhi, one can start headstand at any age. It’s not really based on age but your physical ability. Your practice should be built from the ground up. Standing poses, arm mobility and strength, I.e. downward dog, chaturanga, handstand.
Make sure you can move your shoulders down, pressing the forearms to the floor.
Tell me more about your current practice and abilities.
Have you been practicing with me? Thanks 🙏🏻
