    I struggle with arm balances in general -- mostly total fear of face-planting. I've watched countless other "How to do crow" videos with no luck. Something clicked with this one, however, and yesterday, I actually got my feet off the floor for the first time ever. Not for long -- maybe 2-3 seconds, but that's 2-3 seconds longer than I've ever managed before! Thank you! Looking forward to trying some of your other "how to" videos!

  • @katherineelizabethyates5807

    Oh my god I did it in 5 minutes I love you!!!! I went from thinking that it would take a while just to get over the fear, to thinking it would take a while to get the strength just to pick up one foot off the floor, to just doing it with you (and a couple of blocks and a big cushion for reassurance...) but I did it like right now!!!! I held it for 2 seconds but feel positive enough about it to practise it again tomorrow now :) thank you so much.

  • @JimRooney

    I'm new to teaching myself and look to your videos as an example of what to focus on and how to convey it to students.
    I was teaching Crow today, so I wound up here and incorporated some of your tips into my class.
    At the end, I had a student let me know that in his 10+ years of practicing, he'd never achieved crow pose... until today.
    Thank you.

    Incredible tutorial. I'm not into yoga but it looked like fun to try. Your teaching method is brilliant. My very 1st try I held for 3 seconds, followed immediately by a 10 sec hold, then a 6 sec hold. It's a strong workout, after I catch my breath and have a cuppa I'll try again. As a 62 year old, it's fun. I'll give myself a while to perfect it then I'll try some of your other tutorials.

    • @Livinleggings
      @Livinleggings  Před 3 lety +2

      Im glad it helped! The legs can wobble out of place when we lack strength within the inner thighs and core to be able to hold them steady! So with time and practice its most likely the wobble will become steadier but really try to focus on squeezing the thighs in towards each other to help!

    Arms in Crow are bent close to 90 degrees .. Crane has the straighter arms your showing and a lot harder. In Crow start with your knees in the armpits and shift forward to find your balance and learn what yoga hand lock is if you want to save your wrists.
