Yoga Demo Video: Advanced Yoga Poses With Marysia Weiss
Here my yogi teacher friend Marysia Weiss inspires with this yoga demo during Krista Cahill’s class at Yogis Anonymous. The advanced yoga poses in the yoga sequence I have broken down and explained below. I have provided links so that you can work on the individual yoga poses in the yoga demo and perhaps one fine day put it all together into a fancy yoga sequence yourself!
1. Low lunge variation with shoulder behind calf and pressing forward
Step your right foot forward to the outside of your right hand, coming into a lunge. Keeping the back thigh lifted, slide your right shoulder behind your right shin and press the shoulder forward into the calf.
2. Half Crow/Half Tittibasana
Keep the shoulder pressing in to the knee and hop your left foot forward until you can snuggle your left knee into your left armpit. Now slowly lower your butt as you move your chest forward and reach through your right foot.
3. Eka Pada Koundinyasana 2
Lean your chest way forward and look toward the horizon to keep the chest lifting at the same time reach the left leg way back extending through the ball of the left foot.
4. Ashtavakrasana
Press down with right leg into your right shoulder like crazy as you draw your left leg through the arms and hook the left foot over the right foot. Lean your chest forward as you bend your elbows.
5. Eka Pada Koundinyasana 2
Lean your chest way forward and look toward the horizon to keep the chest lifting at the same time reach the left leg way back extending through the ball of the left foot.
6. Ghanduberandasana (scorpion variation)
Your on your own for this part since I hav never actually pulled this part off myself.
7. Vinyasa
Good Luck With Your Yoga Sequence!
