How to do the “Roll Up” Vinyasa in 3 Poses from Ashtanga Yoga’s Primary Series
Вставка

- The tricky “Roll Up” vinyasa shows up not once, but three times within Ashtanga’s Primary Series. While many people have difficulty doing this movement, it can absolutely become part of your practice once you have our tips in mind!
In this video, we’re breaking down the “ROLL UP” VINYASA that’s introduced in Ashtanga Yoga’s Primary Series. While we focus less on alignment in this tutorial and more on the transitional movements, you’ll still learn the Sanskrit count and alignment cues for the 3 poses in which this action takes place: SUPTA KONASANA, UBHAYA PADANGUSTHASANA, and URDHVA MUKHA PASCHIMATTANASANA. You’ll understand the similarities in this vinyasa among the 3 poses as well as how it varies between each one. We also give you tips and suggestions to help make the movement, as well as the static pose, more accessible within each vinyasa.

Wow thank u for spreading this message for adopting dogs instead of buying. Great deed ❤️🙏
My favorite yoga couple!🥰
Omygosh i was just telling my sis in law what you said about laughing it off looking silly. When i first started yoga i was so afraid to try harder poses for fear of not achieving them and looking silly. Like it was a defeat. Now i welcome the challenge and try no matter how amateur i look its called progression :)
Dear David and Jelena thank you very much for this new lesson and for your wonderful little dog , you are ever great, l appreciate you every time! GOD BLESS YOU. Cecilia
I absolutely LOVE that you guys are breaking these down in individual videos. I'm using these to supplement my practice and refine my movements when I do the series.
Thank you so much guys! I've currently reached these asanas under the promise of one of my teachers who argued they were a piece of cake. I look like a hot dog rolling, I really needed this tutorial 🤣🙏
I am so grateful for your total presentation- demonstrations and instructions ❤️ You explain so well what can not be seen but needs to be experienced by the practitioners . You inspire and encourage.. I look forward to every tutorial and and often review weeks later to check my development.
Thank you so many times over❣️
Very helpful 😊
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this “ methods” class that you do. I have been following your chaturanga dandasana tips and it’s really helping me.
GREAT!!!! and very USEFUL😃 Thanks David and Jelena. I'm learning way too much with both of you
Your tutorials are incredible. Thank you for sharing. 🙏
Also, thank you Jelena for sharing the message about adopting. It was because of you that I chose to adopt my current dog. 😊
Thanks for this video. These roll ups can be difficult. But for me, they feel good when I get them right. Your tips about rounding the full back are helpful.
The best tutorials ever, thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Love your breakdown tutorials, thank you for sharing. Are ye planing on teaching ashtanga virtually in the future?
Thank you very much🔥👍❤️
¡Gracias pro el video! Les sigo desde hace un tiempo por el instagram y ahora soy fan de su canal de youtube porque me motiva mucho a practicar. Un abrazo.
i was very helpful.. you are great!!!!... i wish my yoga teacher would have 25% of You 🙂
Pushing with the heel did it for me. I had a teacher tell me to do that since it also helps keep the legs straight. And I’m glad you mentioned feeling it in the back to come up because when I don’t feel it, I can’t get up. Great discussion!
Really appreciate you two. I am always learning more😃
I love your tutorials, so helpful. I always watch them. 🙏
I just discovered you, guys! Amazing channel
Thanks a lot for this vital tutorial. Could it be possible to explain about the breathing in each vinyasa - inhalation and exhalation?
Thk u so much! Grateful for ur detailed explanation n demostration..🙏🙏
Mr conni love him!!💖
Thank you for the demonstration of these asanas. My lumbar spine hurts when I roll forward. Any tips how to avoid the pain? Btw, you’re such a lovely couple ! Love from Sweden. 🇸🇪
I learned a lot on the "rolling up" vinyasa and take particular attention to the rounding and deep flexion, but you didn't say what the breath was doing....exhaling on going into it????
I really need this tutorial. I am finding it impossible to roll up in these three poses without bending my legs. I shall try to follow all your advice when I next practise and see how I get on.🙏
Completely agree about adoption. All three of my cats are from no-kill animal shelters.
grazie

Thanks for another really helpful video, David and Jelena (and Mr. Khani)! 🤍🤍🤍 I love the first two poses, but I still struggle, on occasion, with urdvha mukha p.
