Absolutely brilliant instruction. You're as quick and precise as a weather girl!

@rebeccawhiting2353 3 года назад

Yes! Have been to so many classes and nobody has ever really explained the downward dog. Can now feel all the feels I should be!

@bob4919 Год назад

Hi Liv. Your instruction is the most thorough and comprehensive of all the "how to" videos that I've seen on RU-vid. Thank you for your help.

@Livinleggings Год назад

Thank you so much! Glad it helped!

I am always struggling with this pose…thanks for this tutorial, so helpful 🙏

@sybamunki 9 месяцев назад

I really stuggle with down dog, this covered all my questions. Thank you!

@tammyputhoff9786 Год назад

That made a huge difference! It’s revitalized me to try longer yoga sessions. Thank you!

@jememe5209 Год назад

thank you! as a beginner to yoga, downward dog has kind of been presented as a “basic” movement that everyone knows already … except I had no idea how to really do it. thanks again!

@elinad3869 3 года назад

Yes Liv!! This is so great! I've mostly always done yoga by myself or online which made me insecure if I do poses like these (the basics) correctly! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us🙏🥰

This is the first time am visiting your channel and I must say I enjoyed.. satisfied...learned it's was awesome ❤

@victorialouisebutler2736 Год назад

That was the best explanation of how to place my shoulders and armpits I’ve seen in 2 years of learning! Thank you 🙏 I’m currently suffering shoulder impingement/tendinitis and I think bad dog is a root cause 😆 I’m very slight with long but thin arms and have been really trying to build upper body strength… and then bam! Really painful shoulders and no weight bearing while recovering. Are there any tips you can guide me towards to protect my shoulders but continue my practice? I’d be so grateful! ☺️

@noralynpropps2327 3 года назад

This was such a great video. So informative for a beginner like me. I like your saying "wrapping your armpits toward your face" part. I could really feel a difference and with no pain. Thank you so much!

@Livinleggings 3 года назад

Ah I’m glad you found it helpful! 🙏🏼

@anshumanmogha8767 Год назад

Tysm ! Lin u are so grateful to me i don't know how to say ty to but still i will try my best tysm!!

@TaylorCottonSurveyor Год назад

Really clear and comprehensive explanations. Well done.

@Kristina-pr6lx 3 года назад

Ha! So I just completed your "Full Body Stretch - Gentle Yoga Flow 45 Minute Class" video. Which was awesome, *except*, that every time we went into downward dog I muttered "I hate this, I cannot do this pose, I don't even know what the goal is here" or something similar. I enjoyed the video so much that I went to your channel to see what else you had and if you were still posting, and lo and behold..... four days ago you posted this!! A super-clear tutorial INCLUDING a description of the point of the pose. Thank you so much!! I am subscribing and saving this video.

Have only been to several YOGA classes over the years but I knew instantly I was hooked. Your instructional videos have helped me immensely. Namaste 🙏

@user-fh8zw2kb6d 2 месяца назад

Getting back into a practice and nice to have this review!

@silviakathrin3273 3 года назад

Thanks for the video and all the explanation!😍 Helps a lot to correct mistakes which sneek in over time with only online yoga..

@dave2059 Год назад

You are a fantastic teacher. You do an awesome job of not just showing the positions but explaining why it is done that way and what is happening in the body. I have had tight hamstrings (or so I thought) surely for longer than you have been alive (I'm 63) and now i find out that oh maybe the primary issue was not actually tight hamstrings, but the nerves being "protective" and telling my body to not let the hamstrings loosen up. A few days into doing the nerve relaxation (glide I think you called it) and I have gained more flexibility than a decades worth of stretching has accomplished. Thank you. You are life changing in a very positive way.

@ymmm-yogamovementmeditatio9507 Год назад

Very good explanation. Bravo

@jasonree Год назад

Super helpful! Thanks

@debradipiazza844 Год назад

I am a pretty experienced yogini, and I always learn something important from your videos. Thank you.

@pikanique Год назад

I watch and follow many of your videos, and I have found these ones that break down individual yoga poses to be so incredibly helpful for me. The smallest changes have made the biggest difference in my practices. I would love to see more poses - especially basic/common ones broken down like this! So valuable

@laurenfromfrance7892 3 года назад

Thanks for this tuto I will start over in a right way. Same for forward fall👌🏼

@hughbo52 Год назад

I so do struggle with this pose, thank you for the enlightenment.

@graham8854 8 месяцев назад

This has been soooo helpful. Thanks for creating these beginner vids 🥰

@agustinamanfredi8704 3 года назад

Hi Liv! Thanks for the tips. Im always unsure about how to place my arms, it’s a bit difficult to recognise on my own how to do it by just looking at a screen. But your advice on how to place the shoulders was easy to understand. Will try to put it into practice onwards. Thanks tons!

@brunazacharias294 3 года назад

Liv, you’re an amazing teacher, really! Love your videos, thank you so much 🥰 Cheers from Brazil ❤️😘

@lazydays27 Год назад

Hi Liv, I've wondered for ages whether I'm doing downward dog correctly. I'm so glad I found your video. You are so clear and make it so easy to understand. I filmed myself to see what I looked like and your explanation and tips have made such a big difference. Thank you!! X

@Livinleggings Год назад

So glad it was helpful!

@xxSydneyFox 5 месяцев назад

Thats really helped me to understand what im supposed to be doing. Thank you so much ❤

@thothtahuti5509 Год назад

Very helpful!

@andrewtheogre5971 Год назад

Thank you Liv, i try to follow your videos as much as I can. Being 50, obese and recently out of spine surgery has given me poor self image. Following your videos helps me restart my journey to being happy again. 🙏🏽❤️

@gracewalsh3549 Год назад

Very helpful thanks 🙏🏽 I’ve been doing Les Mills body balance for a year now and done hundreds of downward facing dogs. I’ve just been doing the pose how I think it should be.

@peter2qg Год назад

So helpful and well explained. I’m starting to use down dog as part of rehab for a rugby shoulder injury where I have lost high level range (I can’t put my arm straight up in the air) and this is such a great video to help me get the right form.

@tropicalflowergardening8198 10 месяцев назад

@koljakalaba2290 3 года назад

Hello Liv, I just wanted to say "THANK YOU" from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful, and expert, and happy classes you provide here on your channel. Really nice! Since I discovered your channel recently, your videos are quickly becoming my favorites for my daily practice. I am beginner (doing yoga regularly last 18 months) and I was wandering if you could make more slower & longer classes with enough time to breathe and think in between the moves? There are some, but if you could have some more that would be much appreciated.(60-70-80-90 minutes long). THANK YOU again! Hare Krishna.

@nadine5934 3 года назад

Thank you for that tutorial. I am one of those hyper mobility persons in the shoulders and find it very hard to find the right upper body position in downward dog. Will try your tips the next time 🥳🧘🏻‍♀️

@idabergmann5270 Год назад

benny seemed to be a little disappointed when you introduced him.. but then showed the downdog without his assistance. but.. you are a great teacher indeed. thanks liv!

@pseto3883 7 месяцев назад

OMG, all this time I did it so wrong 😅

@vendy8106 3 года назад

Thanks for the tutorial (and all your other tutorials 😁). There are a lot of down dog - plank transitions. When done this way, aren't the feet and arms too close together? Or is the distance really flexible and we just do it as needed for whatever we are doing?

@jkrjhn8 Год назад

Very informative!

@evelynbenedicta318 3 года назад

Thanks for the tips! Try to bend my knees to keep my back straight but always end up a bit rounding on my lower back. Even i need to keep my back a little bit backwards when i sit with straight leg because my lower back keep rounding. Poor posture i guess? 😔

@Livinleggings 3 года назад

Just sounds like tight hamstrings, doesn’t matter if it sounds slightly, as long as you’re thinking of pushing sit bones up and thighs back, perfection not required for it to be correct! 👌🏼
