Thank you for the creative use of the blocks under the thigh to attempt that difficult move. I think with practice I can complete the move one day.

I find that my hamstrings and hips are too tight to allow me to get into poses where my leg is up over my shoulder or my shoulder under my knee and thus I can’t get into the pose properly and there appears to be either full expression of the pose or not at all, Andrea doesn’t explain if there are other versions of the pose.
Andrea is a great teacher and I would love to see a more general class of hers and not one that is focused on getting to a peak pose. I find that classes that work towards a peak pose consist of lots of poses that are similar to the peak pose and build on one another but I can’t get into these poses either.

My first attempt doing this class--I feel like I'm a pretty solid "Intermediate II" level student and this class was waaaay more advanced . I think it should be more like an "Advanced I". It's all good--something to work towards. Loved the Chataranga Pushups--next time, I may just go strapless, Andrea (-:
Definitely a fun and challenging way to start the morning. And I now have something to work towards!
