Try these warm up exercises before moving towards eka pada koundinyasana 2. Whether you float, hover or faceplant (which I’ve done many times!), be proud of yourself for giving it a go. Allow yourself to try again, today or another day. Listen to your body and enjoy your practice 🥰

More paddle board yoga adventures with my lovely friend @dagmarfredborg 🏝️🏄♀️
Swipe to see me falling off 😅
It is very normal to wobble and even to fall over when trying new balancing postures! Instead of being embarrassed or scared, accept that it’s a possibility and try anyway. With regular practice, you will find balance. 🤍

This water-themed yoga flow incorporates fluid movement into postures that we may usually stay static in, like parsvottanasana (pyramid).
Bringing fluid, creative energy into physical practice can be so fun!

My first time experiencing paddle board yoga… I absolutely loved it!
If you want to give it a go, I’d recommend you keep an open mind and have a sense of humour about the (potentially many) spectacular falls into the water, speaking from experience 🤭

I’ve been practicing and teaching yoga inspired by the elements - earth, water, fire, air, ether - recently.
Honouring the element of water through physical practice and meditation nurtures the fluid, adaptable, passionate, creative energy flowing within us.

If you want to try Bird of Paradise but you’re not sure where to start, try following the steps in this video to move into the posture.
Your legs definitely don’t need to be straight, a slight bend of the standing knee can really help with balance.
Use your breath to steady yourself, approach the pose with as little seriousness as possible and embrace any wobbles! 😊

Part one of this flow towards Svarga Dvijasana (Bird of Paradise) builds the strength and flexibility required for the pose in your legs and hips. We also explore a bind here that will prepare you for the bind in Svarga Dvijasana. #yogaflow #yogainstructor #strength #stretching #yogagirl
If someone had told me I’d be moving into Hanumanasana (splits) like this when I started practicing them at the beginning of this year I would’ve said they were crazy. It’s amazing how far regular, gentle practice can take you 💜 #yoga #splits #stretch #practice #yogagirl
What a fabulous Sunday morning at Lululemon!
Thank you Lucy @vayuyoga_studio and the gorgeous team at Lululemon for organising this. I had so much fun chatting all things yoga and pilates with @millieleighpilates 💜
My Align leggings & matching yoga bra are new faves 🩷

My adaptation of a full moon salutation, focusing on building heat and stretching hips and hamstrings before my splits practice 🩷💜🩵 #yoga #selflove #hips #stretch #flow
