Seated bird of paradise

Seated bird of paradise

Video, Yoga sequence
If you ask me which version of bird of paradise is harder (standing or sitting), I would say the standing one. When hips and hamstring aren't flexible or didn't get warm up enough it will make your balance in standing become more challenging. Anyhow, give yourself a try with seated version. Some of the prep poses are:  Extended side angle pose with binding arms (Utthita Parsvakonasana) Lizard pose (Utthan Pristhasana) Goddess pose (Utkata Konasana) Revolved head to knee pose (Parivrtta Janu Sirsanasa) Shooting bow (Akarna Dhanurasana) Sundial pose (Surya Yantrasana)  And any position to help you stretch hamstrings.  Enjoy your practice! https://youtu.be/XRzD5yVnEbg

We want someone to guide us so that we can go deeper in our practice. To know how to give yourself practice for 60 or 90 minutes takes an effort and time to learn and you need guidance from experienced teachers. There's one thing you can learn by yourself is Surya Namaskar or Sun Salutation. There are 3 kinds that I teach but today we'll learn the most common ones - Sun Salutations A & B You maybe practicing this so many times but have never noticing the sequence and know what's the difference between the A & B.
