#YogaTutorial
Kapotasana, translated into English as the Pigeon, is one of the most challenging Backbends of the Intermediate Ashtanga Series.

Key steps to safely practicing:
1. Engage the pelvic floor. This can’t be stated enough for this asana. Without a strong activation of the bandhas your back simply lacks the support it needs.
2. Lift up to create space and only bend into the space you create when your body gives you a green light. Backbends are all about making space between the joints. If you push into the joints before the space is there you’ll collapse and compress the joints.
3. It’s about strength. Activate the quads and ground through the knees and the feet to keep the hips elevated and pushed forward.

This #yogatutorial is about how to deepen your Kapotasana safely. Watch the full tutorial on how to enter in three different ways, progressing from easiest to most difficult. But be prepared for a journey BC even the easiest Kapotasana is still very challenging.

When I first started making videos all I made were free tutorials on YouTube! Things have come a lot way since then (I’m a published author now and I run my own online channel @omstarsofficial ). Posting this tutorial here kind of feels like coming full circle and getting back to what got me started in the first place—helping students practice yoga. I’m so grateful to every student who has been with me for be journey and new ones who are just starting with me now.
