Shoot a Yogi Yoga Challenge, Day 2: The Vinyasa + some tips from Day 1!

You guys did great with The Fling yesterday, but I keep seeing the same issue: many of you are lowering the too leg down to the ground, using momentum to kick up. Don't do this! Keep the top leg straight and strong, parallel to the ground. The lifted leg is what pulls your entire body up! And once you're up there; NO BANANA BACKS. Draw your tailbone towards the heels (think a light cat pose action) and the lower ribs in towards the pubic bone. Give it another try! You can post as many videos as you want, and feel free to jump into the challenge whenever you like.

Today, post a video of yourself doing a vinyasa. Align yourself well: slight shift forward over the wrists from plank so you get a 90-degree bend in the elbows when you lower down. Don't allow your elbows to splay out to the sides but keep them close, and use the strength of the legs. Lengthen your tailbone (I dropped my belly down here when Ringo started pulling on my necklace...) and keep the chest drawing forward. Shoulders ALWAYS off the neck (in plank, chaturanga and down dog) and let your breath guide you. In up dog, press the tops of your feet down and draw the inner ankles towards the midline of the mat. Widen the collarbones as you inhale, and let your core pull you back to down dog when you exhale.

So Ringo will be a part of pretty much all videos from now on... I'll post a better video from the yoga studio tonight but start posting! Don't forget to hashtag #shootayogi !! LOVE❤ #yogaeverydamnday
