What is important is that you develop a good relationship with yourself on the mat. Maty Ezraty .

#Repost per credit from & the courtesy of @faern ・・・ The very first time I stepped up onto this stage I was not so steady 🍃⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I honestly cannot remember if I was assisting or practicing but before class in the teacher area I divulged something to @lesleventhalyoga -⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ it went something along the lines of⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ “I think I have stage fright”⁣⁣ and Les being the amazing human that he is grinned and said “I’m not so sure of that -it’s time for class”⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I didn’t think much of that.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ At some point I hear him say (mind you there are at least 100 other people in the room)⁣⁣ “Faern Nataraj”⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 🤗What?⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ He points to the stage.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ I walk up most likely with a look of disbelief on my face on my face and I did it.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ That’s what I remember...⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ See you tonight @lesleventhalyoga happy you’re in town 🙌⁣⁣ #yogatreesf #faern #faernyoga #faernstory #sfyoga . Oh and yeah it’s necessary- the stage. I know some don’t like it but I like it because I can see your faces. All of them. And I know you can see my shorty self when I demo- why do I know this? Because every time someone just uses the floor in front of it I cannot see them. Like at all. It bothers me so I don’t do it. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bv8EAAbFA-p/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ra95ki9ozm9x

Words. . . . . I found it this way so I left it. . . I'm finding that I leave smartassery notes for myself in unexpected places- like Instagram half thoughts oh I mean drafts 😬 . . Finding that "which way is up" is relative even outside of inversions so I'm just going to keep on teaching ... . . TODAY please join me for my class @yogatreesf Castro 3-4:20 BUT if that's too early today- come to 4:30 because I'm covering that. 🙆 #vinyasayoga #yogatreesf #natarajasanavariation #iliveinsf #sfyogaclasses #pausebutton #resetting (at Yoga Tree)

@sissygerber @yogameg.uk here is that video I promised. I have to admit, not the most graceful lift off but hey 🙅 I let it be so. Some details: where am I crossing my forearms? Under the chest - some of us have the whole chest thing and let me tell you UNCOMFORTABLE with arms under the body. I make a box out that down and build up from there- this is because of the chest but also I'm not all that strong in the arms- WAY more than just a few months ago, but still. I spent quite a long time with the rectangular arms down before I moved on to cricket arms and then at some point I was able to do what I share in this video. Hands are clasped a special way for my RIDICULOUSLY flexible elbows- forcing the arms to stay in a shape where they can't hyper extend. Please post questions below! #BackbendLab #yogachallenge . #sfyoga #yogavideo #backbend #faernyoga #yogastudent #yogatreesf (at Yoga Tree)

Savoring the transition. The imminent change. The space between space. ...even if my tights-over-pants- situation is causing me to slide off my elbows... • Catch me today @yogatree #hayesvalley subbing. We will not be working on this pose, but we will be savoring the space in between breaths ... #yogatreesf #sfyoga #armbalance #tryagain #yogainspiration #balance #yogagram #strength #progressnotperfection (at FAERN.me)
