Iyengar Yoga | Intermediate Level | 40 mins

Forward extensions can be challenging for many yoga students. In this intermediate level Iyengar Yoga practice, you'll learn how to deepen your groins and lengthen your lumbar spine in the ardha presentation of several different poses. These actions can radically transform your experience of forward bending asanas.
Practicing yoga with props is especially informative. In this Iyengar Yoga class, we utilize a yoga strap, tied around the pelvis, to highlight and emphasize particular actions.
Yoga poses from today's practice include: Tadasana, Utkatasana, Malasana, Ardha Uttanasana, Virabhadrasana III, Adho Mukha Svanasana, Urdhva Dandasana, Eka Pada Sirsasana, Setu Bandha Sarvangasana
Happy practicing! I hope you enjoy new insight and understanding into this rich category of poses ☺️🙏💜

I will practice Krouncasana with the top foot to the wall. A great instruction. In the dynamic sequence of Utkatasana to Malasana, my heels rise up. Can I do the sequence with something under my heels?

[@iyengaryogawithstephanie]

I'd suggest to first try taking your legs wider and see if that helps you keep them down (You can do the whole sequence with a wider stance). In this sequence you are moving swiftly through the asanas so even if the heels are up, provided that you are stable, it can be fine. But if you are unstable or if it's painful, then of course, put support under your heels. Hope that helps!

Do you have any work with the Swedish ladder? Can we make progress in yoga with this? I wanted to ask because it appears in the background. Thank you Stephanie, first comment from me, Namaste🙏💐👍.

[@iyengaryogawithstephanie]

I use the ladder primarily for my ropes and Yoga Kurunta but no videos yet. I’ll add it to the list 😜
