My friend and student Fran asked me how to do dragonfly pose. Check out the video:
It's essentially a twist and an arm balance combined, and it uses more belly and leg strength than arm strength. It's really just a matter of leveraging these strengths. So, if you can do utkatasana (fierce pose), a spinal twist, and bakasana (crow pose), then you can do this. It's just a different way of using the strengths of these postures!
So, can you do it? Do you have a different way of getting into this pose? Do you have a pose that you just can't figure out?
Get some tea, let's discuss!
Great video! I've never tried Dragonfly pose that way, I will have to give it a go. I learned it from standing....hum.....how would I show it? Perhaps I could make a clip and post the link here?
