STEPPING FORWARDS FROM DOWNWARD DOG
Olivia Marley
Probably the most common question I get asked after class is something like “when we’re in downward dog and you say step your foot forwards I can’t step it very far and I’m not sure why… am I doing it wrong? Is there anything I could do differently?”. If that sounds like something you might say then:
you’re not alone - loads of other people feel the same!
you’re not doing it wrong
there might be another way you could try that would make it easier
This quick video summarises your options, and also looks at how to take a long step back from a standing forward fold.
