  • In India we use yesteryears yellow pages / white pages and each day we rip one from each side. In around a year provided you practice daily you have what I call smooth sailing. Namaste

  • Helpful!!

  • thank you ,Sadie .

  • Can you jump directly from upward dog to warrior 2 (roughly)?  For surfing :)

  • Thanks very much for this video. I've been struggling with this and I believe this video will really help!

  • Comment removed

  • fantastic video

  • Inspiring instruction!

  • Is it not painful for your toes to land on the mat like that? When my yoga instructor tells us to jump to the front of the mat or back, I can't seem to do it without it looking very awkward and painful. I always have to take the "walk of shame" up to the top of my mat... You seem to be able to do it with much grace! *Is dazzled* Ah well! I'll be able to do it someday! :D

    Thanks for your videos, as always, Sadie! I've learned a lot!

  • @shinigami01 There is no shame. Every effort is beautiful. Just keep doing it and one day, Yes!

  • this was really great! thanks for the step by step modification and the fun attitude!

  • I like the hops/kicks to help develop arm strength & balance. Thanks again Sadie. You rock!

  • Thank you so much for this upload. Great stuff! x

  • it is amazing ,thx

  • The lolasana described here looks like what I have seen referred to as tolasana elsewhere. I've been putting together a jump back workshop for a bit and am having trouble finding consistency in the names of these poses. Oh well.

    Great vid, the progression I put together is very similar.

    As always, great info, Sadie!

  • Yayyy something I can do. lol. Must be because I have long arms. I can jump back easily from sitting, but when standing I can't jump my legs up high like that. I havn't got that balance.

  • a bona!

  • sadie, your explanations and advices are really touching me. jumping back vinyasa from each ground pose is really a challenge for me (as for most of people it seems) in my ashtanga yoga daily practicing and i struggle with it every day, your advices are cheering me up and show me what i need to work on and what i'm doing wrong, very helpful, thank you,

  • Really great instruction. I have very strong abs, but quite short arms. Working with blocks has made it easier to create more fluid movement. I may not ever be as graceful as you, but who cares! The journey and play is all the fun! Namaste.

  • I just browsed though - to find this video just made my day! Can't wait to practice!

  • Amazing! Shifting the shoulders forward when kicking the heals up towards the seat instantly made the difference! I flew! THANKS SOOOO MUCH...

  • i used those little push up bars. more stable than the blocks

  • You clearly have nice long arms, there are a lot of people who have relatively short arms and/or long trunks.

    it's not all about shortening the mid section and so those who are not anatomically suited to this even risk spinal disc damage by trying too hard. to get the extra lift.

    What do you say to that ?

  • Very helpful! Thank you!

  • Yeah! Use your physics, and you will get so much more powerful. Thanks for saying so--I'm glad it helped you.

    Namaste!

    Sadie

  • thank you so much for this video! it's incredibly helpful and I feel very empowered!

  • i have been trying to do this for ages. thank you for this video i will definitely be practicing, thank you namaste x

  • good luck!!! It's totally possible. Sadie

  • Sadie. Do I hear an Anusara infulence in your language?

  • I did study quite a bit of Anusara, and it has infiltrated:) xoSadie

  • thx sadie

    maybe could you demonstrate with your blocks

    a lolasana

  • I think I did that here...I will double check and if not--I will do it this week!

    peace,

    Sadie

  • hmmm great

    thx for demonstration

    but how could you jump out from a tolasana

    5 points for this practice

  • Hi Torsten!

    From Lolasana, it's the same movements as you see here--just like with the blocks, press down through your hands, curl up into your navel, and send your heart forward as you jump back. It takes a lot of power and practice, and I'm still working on it. Almost there!:) good luck!! Sadie
