Dive Deeper into Down Dog

Elise Fabricant

Downward Facing Dog is probably the most commonly used poses, but is still often misunderstood. It demands much of the body, and often causes students to "muscle through" rather than refining the appropriate actions of the body.

In this alignment-based class we will warm up the hamstrings, feel the correct placement of the pelvis, work on strong, planted hands and play with the healthy rotation of the shoulders. This practice will work your mind and body, and refine and deepen Downward Dog so that you can approach an old pose in new ways.

Great for learning downward dog. I ve done yoga classes for years and performed downward facing dog just by trying to visually copy what others do. This helped tremendously and my wrists and shoulders no longer hurt when I do this pose. Thank you!

Fabulous, Jane! It s always a good idea to have a teacher look at your form, but when you can t (thanks coronavirus!) a deep dive online workshop like this is the next best bet.

I like/love Elise s other classes, but won t be doing this one again. I have been doing YD classed 3-5 times a week for over a year. I wanted to know what instructors meant when they say "press down through your fingers." I have my weight in my palms in down dog. This class didn t help to ensure we were doing the pose correctly. Some of her cues were hard for us to understand. What s more, I m writing this the next day as I think I strained my rotator cuff doing this class. : (

I m sorry to hear that this class wasn t helpful for you. It sounds like you learned something about your hands, though?

I ve been feeling very insecure about my yoga posturing lately. This feeling is partly because of various old ailments and partly because YD is my primary access to yoga and I don t have an instructor in the room with me. Elise s class helped to bring me back to technique and I am grateful for a class that guides me into better alignment. Thank you!

You re welcome. It s always a good idea to see a live teacher every so often, too.

Good instruction with a nice, easy pace. I liked that there was some gentle flow thrown in to help my body stay warm while focusing on technique.
