キノ・マクレガ―のインスタグラム(kinoyoga) - 9月16日 19時49分

It took me nearly two years of consistent practice before I could do this pose. I fell over, toppled over, crashed and generally felt defeated. Then, one day it shifted and I could do it. It took all that time for me to build the strength in body and mind.

While not every pose will be accessible for every body, every single person can find a way to work that builds more strength. I will never tell you a story about what you can’t do. I am here to tell you a story of what’s possible if you believe in yourself and have enough faith to get on your mat and put in the work. It doesn’t matter if you succeed at the pose, but it does matter how you try. The effort of trying will teach you valuable life lessons that can transform every aspect of your life.

Tips—
1. Foundation—spend a long time in Dolphin Pose before trying to kick up.
2. Use the shoulders, not the elbows—it’s the strength in the shoulders that will hold you here. So many people focus on the elbows but it has come from deeper.
3. Headstand—long holds in headstand help build the strength. And if you can’t do headstand then I recommend to get that stable before trying Pinchmayurasama in full.
4. Flexibility—your shoulders need a certain degree of extension to work the alignment, focus on backbends and other shoulder openers as a warm-up
5. Core—always remember to orient to the vertical line, not a banana shake when you’re in the pose.
6. Fall—learn how to fall safely so you take the fear out of it
7. Faith—no matter what happens celebrate each day on the mat.
