Yes, I have this weird problem with my knee when I am doing pigeon. It is the pigeon with the left leg behind. Everytime I start to bend the knee, there will be a pain in the knee. And hence, I never dared to really bend the knee and just watch the rest of the people do the pigeon.

With this bugging issue in mind, I asked Desiree after her workshop on my knee problem. She went all out to help me figure why my knee hurts. At first she suspected that it is my internal rotation of the thigh. So she kept helping me rotate the thigh muscles in and then bend my leg, but oh boy, it stil hurts ( i think i was grimacing everytime she bent my leg ). Finally she stuck her fingers right under my knee. And you know what, she bent my knee and it did not hurt abit at all!!!

It’s a miracle! Hahaha… Desiree says its because when my knee bends, the bone there is pressing against my muscle and against the hard floor which causes the pain. Hence I just need a knee pad or some cushion for my knee when doing that pose! Both of us laughed and laughed over it.

Thank you, dear Desiree! :)
