Hi Veena,
I always have so much trouble getting the proper muscles with this stretch. I have tried every different combination of modifications and I always get one of three results:
1) No stretch at all
2) Calf stretch
3) I am trying so hard to maintain the anterior pelvic tilt that my quads are firing like crazy and I am not really relaxing into the pose
Do you have any tips for this?
Thank you!
Are you able to share or upload a video for me. This would be the best way for me to help you troubleshoot.
May I share privately some place?
Yes, you can always share privately via my profile here. https://www.studioveena.com/members/veena/ Just send a private message. I will only watch a link that doesn’t require me to download or login to someplace tho. The link needs to be easy to access.
Another option is if your free now and have an IG account we can video chat for a minute or two to work through what’s going on.
