Ashtanga yoga is a very popular yoga practice that many enjoy. The class I went to was full of fantastic yoga practioners who are advanced in their practice. They had all come specially for this teacher’s class and we had a blast chatting on what’s happening etc. while we waited for the class to begin.
I had not gone for a Yin Yoga class for a long time.
Yesterday was my first yin class since 2 months ago. Many students think that Yin Yoga is real easy. It depends. In fact it can be really tough and difficult. It all depends on how you go into it. But for me, the tough part was to relax the muscles that I am so accustomed to use during normal “yang” classes like power yoga.

Wild thing what the ???
It’s just a cool fun way to coin this yoga sequence. Basically it is just being in downdog then lifting one leg (three legged down dog) and then flip over into a full wheel or upward bow ( urdhva dhanurasana )
Most people in the class agreed that the most difficult part is the positioning of the hands after you have move down into the pose. For me, I am still afraid of the touch down due to previous attempts that ended in bumps on the head twice. Back then my wrists and arms are really weak and often collapsed in that pose when I attempted the pose. Today I felt more in control and strong. Plus we had help from partners who are keeping us from falling by wrapping a towel across the waist.

Another fun yoga sequence created by Teacher Hee Boon :
1. Go into Garudasana. Stay for several breaths.
2. Slowly unhook your leg ( without touching the floor ) and move the leg to the back. Go into a modified Virabhadrasana 3 or Warrior 3 T-posture with the hand still in entwined.
3. From there, again slowly with control, bend the standing leg and put the back leg down to the floor and heels off. Now you will be in a lunge with the back leg on the floor, heels off. Arms are still entwined and body is upright.
