    I love the teacher's vibe so much. When Marry said 'I can't go up", she added 'Yet!'. What an up-lifting vibe right there. Students need teachers like that.

      In that she was working to encourage the student to develop what has come to be called a "growth mindset".

    I have travelled for countless hours through the merciless algorithm, but i finally arrived here.
    No jacked dudes with capcious thumbnails were able to teach me to handstand against the wall as simply and graciously as this woman.
    Thank you. That was humbling

    Thank you🙏. I too can do this. I am person with some kind of stiff body. Initially I couldn't touch my toes but with your clear instructions I am able to do Headstand🧘‍♀️.. When you taught Mary, it gave me great hope. (I can feel Mary )... now feeling great.
    & that phrase in mayurasana video "how can i do this" motivates me alot.
    Although i am struggling to learn mayurasana. But i have full faith in your instruction, i will learn it too very soon.
