First time jumping into Bhujapidasana and Tittibhasana


This was a nice surprise. Jumped further than I intended into Tittbhasana and ended up on my arms. Usually I would jump to the side of my hands settle my legs on my arms and then move into the asana, had never figured out how to do the jump straight in. Tried it on Bhujapidasana and landed that as well. Both times I landed too low down the arms which made the asana awkward but now I have the basic technique I can work on landing higher up the arms.

For the jump, lead with the knees and aim them towards the shoulders.

Have you seen Olaf's Tittibhasana video on Youtube?

Hi Grimmly can you please show me what is the technique that you used for landing higher up the arms ?

LiiLi, I'm still don't think I land as far up my arms as I'd like but I tend to aim high up inside my right and left groin fro the shoulders, that seem s to end up lansing me higher, also I tend to look ahead and up eyes so high they are almost disappearing into the top of my head, that seems to help a little too. Will have a think about doing a video on this when I'm healthy again (kidney stones).
