    Hi Gabrielle & Co.

    I have been a regular 3+ times a week at Bikram for 4 months or so and still making NO progress on my Hands To Feet Pose, Standing Head To Knee Pose & Head To Knee Pose combined with Intense Stretching Pose.
    The muscles at the back of the knee/thigh area are like concrete!!!I can’t seem to get past it at all Are there any separate stretches I can do outside of class to try an loosen this problem out?

    Thanks as always
    🙂

    Hi Anna

    Ah! It seems you are experiencing some of the MOST CLASSIC hot yoga problems. Have you looked around the forum yet at those specific poses? Checked out hamstrings threads? Looked at the blog post called “Opening Up Your Hamstrings with Hot Yoga”?

    Let me know… Your problem is likely to be fixed quite quickly if it’s what I think it is. It’s most likely technique. See if those posts make sense to you.

    If not I have Pose Tutorials on each of those poses too that would give you tons of aha moments to add to your pose knowledge and experience.

    If you can’t find the threads in question come back and let me know. I thought I’d just shoot this email out quickly in between tasks. 😉 I will add links in a future post.

    Namaste
    Gabrielle 🙂
