MODEL FITNESS: Arm balancing with Tara

[crazymollyxx]

i cant do that.

[auPretender]

Those were super-cool moves. She's really great at it- she's obviously worked very hard to accomplish that. I'm gonna go fall over now.

[livelovelaugh221]

WTF?!? i would love too streghten my arms but there is no wayy i could ever do that!! you make it look soo easy but im sure its not!

[speedy9738]

wow you make it look so easy!

[FlyingPancake0390]

Right at about 1:17 and 2:17, I was like "what th e hell." she is CRAZY good at yoga!

[Soderita]

that's so hard!!!!!

but excelent job :)

[niitac]

nice body

[tothxx]

she is so gorgeous.

[amauricerogers]

Holy (*&^^%! I can bench 400 Lbs and cant do this...does that mean I have to take up knitting?!!?

[yumsprinkles]

"then you just grab your foot like this" LOL i so can't do that - yet! she's a freakin machine. you go girl.

[SOFLO95]

Wow!! you make it look so easy...

[kleiment]

I can do what she does but of course i've been practising yoga for over 2 years now ;D

[sailormoonluvyou]

if anybody here can do what she do :O:O:O:O:O koooool!

[FKjeldsen]

..Now where is the Foodplanner, with all the interesting pasta in olie, and all kind of variables..

[princesasoloyo]

super kool sin palabrassssssssssssssssssss

[Hydrochoerus]

I swear, USE A PILLOW IN FRONT OF YOUR HEAD on the first one!:P

[yumsprinkles]

rofl

[wildhorses100h]

that was the best!!i love arm balances!!ur the best.

[Z3uS2]

That hurts just seeing. I would probably break myself trying to do this stuff.

[idcola]

nice!

[werty02]

i love her!

[chicaluvbi2]

okay i totally admire this chick

[lifepostive]

tara is a good yoga master and have a good control on her body. i good wishes for her

[LizRevival]

i crushed into the floor

"dont be upset" LOL

[userinsitu]

Tara's weird, everytime she shows a new move then she's like "OMG, i did it, i can't believe actually i did it". i think she needs to present wit more confidence

[nealola]

she's super strong

[extremekicksdotcom]

Un huh us breakers love this. I'm 40 and still do my poses and windmills and flares :-)

[lilprittie]

i can ony do about half of that cuz i suck!(no low self esteem added in this comment)just saying and im only in the middle 10 years.

[iamunsure]

Ah, I can get them all except the second pose. My wrist keeps turning. :(

[tnchujo]

these are like breakdancing freezes =)

[fordmodels]

B-boy keep them windmills breezy!

[SpiritualyX]

Good steps to follow.

She makes them look SO easy.

[CrankHenri]

this girl is 50 kg...a man of 80 kg can forget this exercizes:D

[toniezar]

This woman is stronger than 99.999% of men, so humiliating hahahaha

[chelilandia]

Please have some paramedics by your side while you do this! LOL!! nice routine

[pokey16jo]

nice... it's like the basics of break dancing.

[marthoosia]

nice!;)

[Joo3l]

tough. i tried.

almost got it.

[ruffusrules101]

thats crazyyy

[bubbly123456789]

this is incredible!!!!!!!!!!

[gardendd]

great!

[fook1976]

not easy to do but I'll try it out.

[LadyLamz]

okay im hurtin just lookin at this video lol dang!

[joeysxxmaggot]

anyone know how long you're supposed to hold the pose?

[Moosebite1132]

You did those yoga poses very nicely.

[TBHealthe]

Yes, very cool! As a yoga teacher I would emphasize working with basic yoga to lead up to these- injuries give any sport or activity a 'bad rap'! Ford and their models have done a great job at promoting with YouTube.

[rahaxx]

so i just tried the last one and failed miserably xD

though it is pretty cool, and i'd love to be able to do it with some practise....kinda like a breakdance-esque freeze- just more flowy. :)

[rawdiggitty]

showoff.

[GraveBite]

shes beautiful =D

and its a nice exercise, i can do em all =D

[jessey857]

dont try this, these r the things that lead to wrist problems, there to high impact, if u want to do this do it at age 18-20 or maybe even a bit younger, do it if u like but have fun gettin surgury in about 12 years...

[paulwes1983]

YOu have to work up to them, you can't just try them right off the bat.  She mentions that at the beginning.

[SadScarecrow]

that's pretty freaking cool.

[hastinbe]

She should write her own Kama Sutra book.

[LisaMareeezy]

You shouldn't try this unless you do a warm up vinyasa for arm balances and know good counter-poses (apanasana, salabasana, dvi pada pitham) for after the balance. Its kind of irresponsible to suggest that people try this without giving fair warning.

[dryerpenelope]

I've been looking for something to help me tone up my arms.. I just did the first one to see how it feels and I can already feel a difference!!! I'm gonna practice these!! Thanks!!

[SeanGizzle]

That's terrible for the wrists even if you don't have wrist problems.

[fortunein]

Well done Tara. Good presentation of yoga.

[GamberroSalvador]

Is there any standard for how long to follow each pose? Or is that self-discretionary?

[frenchmansgirl]

"so you're just going to"..."you just do this or "you just do that."...holy smokes tara and "just doing" all this while talking! Thanks for the demos...."and that's it" you make it look and sound easy. Are you making a whole video anytime soon? Looks like you could very easily...

[freak49]

Very good! Bakasana into Chaturanga Dandasana?? WOW! That's no easy feet! Tara rocks!

[catrock123]

omg thats so hard

[FitnessHunkFan]

great stuff!

[eonA13]

ill keep practicing the last one but the firts few.. ouch! lol

thanx

u remind me of julia roberta a bit. dunno why.

thanx

[butterfly4u18]

The second one I've seen break dancers and fitness competitors do. Very hard.

[poblockas]

hehe omg i just tried doing the side one with both of my feet on the ground and my arm was shaking so hard. she must be so buff.

[012166777]

[kalvinlamlam]

[fr3d420]

[colonnaf]

one secret is to keep your legs really relaxed

[mitchellnathan]

[JendaPerl]

I'd like to balance HER in my arms ;-)

[McVudy]

Don't do this!!! It's too dangerous if you've never do Yoga :) she's prof..

[kevk87]

whoa I thought my elbows were about to snap

[Ibhelize]

Omg, she makes that look so easy and effortless.

[SoulessTeddy]

[mcgreenee]

[r0ckr0yalty]

[misterstarwash]

[hodenbacke55555]

[acrfk]

She must be great in bed.

[midn8temprss84]

i bet men find this interesting if u knw wat i mean JERKS!!!!! y dont u try these yourselves...... nd see how hard it is.... scumbags.....

[skimkid21]

i saw this vdeo before and i started doing them a few days ago, trying to strengthen my arms, and it works. the first few times my tendons popped and hurt liek hell, but i really like these excercises. ive wanted to try yoga too.

[poetofyou]

It looks so cool when you do all that!

You really motivated me to try it myself

and I can now do the first exercise you

showed us in this clip. Thank's for that!

-Cause' as you said: "It just feels good!"

[starfoxone]

Oh my god! I almost broke my arm at exercise nr 2 -.-''

[FreedReeds]

I'm glad she made that last statement because...I'm thinking it's going to take me a couple months. I'm not even that skinny, either, so I'm guessing a year! lol

[DrewJ16]

My gf needs to learn these positions.

[jourden]

I KNOW RIGHT! Lol!

[haleycatherine]

ew weird

[PrincessConsualaB]

Wow this is so cool i have been able to do this for many years but just because it is fun and i have just seen it on this, :)

[sheka6]

how the hell do you do this-

[quietman18]

those moves look painful !

[JodeyLowber]

She's obviously not a spokes model but, very impressive yoga practioner!

[tara0086]

u are so flexible...i cant do that i think..can u help me? HAHAAHA, bye

[steffy888]

wow

[malhorlit]

she's so sexy!

[pacificawellness]

A+

Dr. Tim

[jojo808]

Tara for Aeon flux 2 =)

[scorpiovic]

really good vid))

[irkiIIer]

i think you can do it, i just almost did that, buyt im not flexible enof.

[bobfuzzy09]

that just looks unnatural at 2:20

[fleshdoll]

yeah shes got her freezes down, im sure she could pull a few windmills :D

[Madi16nz]

omg! no way will i be able to do this!

[MadiJoshTolox]

how can u do that?!

[StarLightNRW]

thx tara really thank you for this video

[sithioth]

Yoga taught me in becoming a better brake dancer!! im not shitting you! it really helps! :)

[fordmodels]

Rappin' is my radio

Graffiti is my TV

B-boys keep those windmills breezy!

-- Aesop Rock

[matrix1951]

Thanks these are good for lots of sports!

[borreztuff]

Looovely smile xD

[biskamal00]

thanks soo much it works

[Eggtix]

i wanna meet this woman--- she is fantastic

[naveedstallone]

its nice

[ILUVBAKKUA]

I think she is very 'light' and a contortionist that's why she's able to make those moves looks so easy and defies gravity like in 01:16 you need to have strong arms or extremely light body weight to do that.

[irishclubswinger]

No. You need to be strong and aware of your body. I am 275lbs and I can do that same posture and have been doing a very masculine style of Yoga for years.

[mjufpn]

Wuiiii that loooks fuun!! i am allready doing it hahhaaaaaa so fun! WHy o why didnt i think of this befor!

[thecreditcure]

I learned so much is just a minute. Thanks Tara!

[Rafa666ella]

cool

[kukkuta]

Thank you Tara for this video. You won't believe but just watchng it i have learned how to get an asana that i never have done before and that i thought was too much for my bodily possibility. It's the one with tho sole of one foot over the elbow, twisting and with the other leg straught backward. Thanks again

[aldave]

Looks impossible.....

[ziindy]

incredible! I will try. Thanks.

[mooncat00710]

if you have severe wrist problems don't do it. lol.

[prihandrade]

So haaaaaaard

[VisionVellocet]

i can do that last one.

all the other ones would cause my arms to fall off.

[trance4mation]

i never knew humans could do that, anyways tara is hot

[Emerald2ruby]

I can do that one at 1:40

[fordmodels]

Oh yeah?  Send us a video, Em2Ru!

[Emerald2ruby]

Not the second part of that one though!!! ^^"

[singhhonda]

woo hoo

[artgurl101]

Those were so hard. My arms hurt lol.

[ssaaffaaaa]

strong girl!!! daren't even imagin myself making these moves!! incredible

[thomasw25]

honestly, i just watched this video with the sound off

[Mudig]

This is the reason why you should date a chick who knows how to do yoga.

[ScifiSaints]

More please.

[rocrenee92]

yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

[tharitjeucool777]

nice!!

but it looks painfull

[sweetpeadarlin]

[heckaiLLusion]

She's a bgirl!

[descartes79]

perfect compere :)

[rockhills]

1:18 that's a b-boy freeze. haha

[nibble15]

wow

[roguenicy]

She's amazing! Love Her!

Besides, those poses aren't that difficult, I can do most, exept the third, and I'm not a model or a gymansist.

[gabrielito88]

yea, that's like break dance

[getufit1]

Tara is young. And I'm 69+, no medical problems, do not spend money on doctors, medicine, supplement and vitamins. The value of my PSA test on Prostate cancer is 0.6ng (very good). I'm teaching how to make microcurrent, produce microelectricity in the body which may kill the cancer cells and slow down the aging process. I'm doing 55 push-ups in one min, do 9 pull-ups and during swimming use a butterfly strokes.

Pavel Goberman Get Energized

[SangeyD]

nice demo. Could you spend more time on fewer techniques and provide please 'troubleshooting' tips?

Show asanas from multiple angles, particularly at the point when coming off the floor?

[falchard]

I wiegh over 200 lbs but I am still very skinny; most muscles in my legs and abdomin. I don't think I can lift my body with just my arms.

Still I will date her despite her man hurting yoga.

[missuecz]

i will never ever able to do that...

[senoritatintin]

she does NOT look like kate form lost!!!! are you kidding me!?!??!?! but youre really strong ( the model ) i do all of these excersizes and they really work!!!

[ArwenCaz]

Awesome... thanks for the tip. I've been trying crow pose and can't seem to do it. But now I can! =) Thank you so much! Can't do the second one! Arghhhh

[4450fight]

Gumby girl, guess what? Probably only you and some 12 year old Romanian gymnasts can do that so you're just showing off. Loved you at 00:45! Congrats to your boyfriend.

[Amanda1Kirsten]

OMG! I tried them it is sooo hard! lol haha

[Kosh800]

Good lord. Okay, yeah ... I don't know how people do this. And as a 180 lb guy ... I'm not sure my wrists are the best place to put that much weight. =)

[Robert450675]

awesome

[stumfie]

I just tried the first one, you have to be joking!

[123withRAI]

very smooth

[patrickvict]

Too hard for me! :(

[fordmodels]

check back tomorrow for a beginers routine.

[pragkitam]

I'm in love..

[coffeefreakzzz]

thats awesome thanks for teaching!

[lifeinplastic]

I don't know what it is about her voice, but I really like it! It is very relaxing.

[redpheonix06]

yah... no way i can do these.. my legs are too long compared the the length of my torso..... hahah

[shkunze]

I could easily do all that stuff *Not!*

Amazing!

[chkngrl]

Can we say someone took ballet and probably gymnastics.

[Dyce27]

some of these moves are from bboying? i mean breaking

[fordmodels]

Yo, Dyce, we had the electric boogaloo pumping on set!

[estherr]

she did a freeze! xD

[malandrik]

I'm terrible sorry for David's abs but I prefer this execises :))) great tara

[conzzzz]

wow!! u're reli gd tara!! that's.. amazing

[lolomgzz]

oh yeah because we all can clearly do that :S

[L1VE2DANCE]

Ugh, why can't you yoga people learn to point your feet! I do arm balancing all the time, and it akes a lot of work to get good at it, but my goodness you could at least look pretty while you do it! POINT YOUR FEET!!!

[eddiec730]

wuts wrong with not pointing ur feet?

[vy205]

You're not supposed to point your feet - you must keep them flexed (or, as my yoga instructor said, 'active') at all times

[MontysMarket]

Woah! As if I am going to be able to do that!! lol. Good vid though.

[believr77]

Just the thought of "arm balancing" makes my bones hurt.

[prankstare]

tara beautiful and elastic...

my mind is going off now, lol =)

[csand167]

her*

[csand167]

whats Tara's last name....cant find he port.

[kido23]

Tara Stiles

[RH0494]

most of the famous breakdancer are male... and it has everything to do with flexibility

[shoepergirl]

blooody hell thanks for making me feel weak. phew! :( i'll work on it.

[AT32123]

It's funny how you make something so painful to look at so beautiful at the same time. Thanks for showing.

[RaveBabyFuu]

yoga is so fun! ya'll should do this.
