[COMP] started working on flying crow this month. Caught a tiny bit of hang time today for the first time. Still lots to work on!

Active stretching in Yoga?

I’ve been trying to get to the splits for a very long time and I see a lot of advice now is that passive stretching isn’t enough and ‘active’ stretching is the way to do it. I thought that was a modern idea but wonder if it’s already built into yoga, especially 3 legged dog? I know I probably shouldn’t focus on one thing but I feel if I can get the spilts it would open up so much I can’t do so wondering if there is a suitable flow for active just for that? Any advice appreciated.

When doing leg Raises, how does one avoid lower back pain?

I'm trying to encorporate the 5 Tibetan Rites into my daily yoga routine and as I'm doing the leg raises portion of it, I notice when I drop my legs I feel it in my lower back which I think is wrong. I keep my hands by my side and I engage my core as much as I can. Is there something I'm missing?

Those who have accomplished a full forward fold, what routine helped you accomplish this?

Couples Yoga

Why is it so hard to find good couples yoga material? Is this a strange idea? I can't find any local classes, and most online stuff on YouTube is only like 10 minutes long. Am I searching something incorrectly? Is it all paywalled?

Joining a 200-hour yoga training program in India: need advice

I'm a 27-year-old from the US and I've been practicing yoga for about a year now. Yoga has had such a positive impact on my life that I've decided it's time to take my practice to the next level. I'm seriously considering joining a 200-hour yoga teacher training (YTT) program in Rishikesh but I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed by the plethora of options available. If any of you have attended a remarkable 200-hour YTT program in Rishikesh, I would truly appreciate your recommendations. Since this will be my first teacher training, I'm seeking a program that provides a solid foundation of knowledge and skills. It would be wonderful to find a program that offers a comprehensive curriculum, experienced and supportive instructors, and a nurturing learning environment. Even if you guys don't have any specific program recommendations, I would love to hear your tips and suggestions for choosing the best yoga teacher training course. What factors should I consider when making my decision?
