Tomorrow is already Day 6๏ธโฃ of the #FlyIntoSpring #yogachallenge and the #asana is an airborne Utthan Pristhasana aka flying lizard pose, or Parsva Bhuja Dandasana aka #grasshopperpose. My heart is smiling SO BIG as I scroll through this gallery. Youโre all so amazing and courageous! ๐โค๏ธ Please see the beginner and advanced variations with @belleyoga.tokyo and advanced with @beahappyamy ๐๐๐ป . . As we approach another #armbalance, keep warming up those wrists, but for this pose add some hip openers like Baddha Konasana. ๐ช๐ป . โ
Start in standing position, feet shoulder-width apart. Begin to lower, placing one ankle over the opposite knee. I find it helpful to practice this with both legs and twist to additional opening to the hips. . โ
Keep your ankle firm on the knee as you bring the sole of your foot to your forearm and twist. . . โ
Place your palms firmly on your mat. Take a deep inhale, and as you exhale lean forward, pushing the sole of your foot into your forearm to keep it from falling. Try to extend the bottom leg outward, and youโre a grasshopper! ๐ Hope this helps, and letโs see those flying lizards and grasshoppers! โค๏ธ๐ฝ๐๐ง๐ปโโ๏ธ๐ฟ . .
