This class introduces Yoga Nidrāsana (Sleeping Yogi Pose) through safe, incremental steps. Begin supine with pelvis and head supported, legs lifted to vertical shins, and arms upright. From here, practice active drills: lowering knees toward the floor while arms extend upward, using rhythm and repetition to awaken the hips. Add arm assists by holding the feet, pressing gently while legs stay active. Next, explore leg-behind-head preps: guide one leg at a time behind the head, keeping the other stable, then alternate sides before attempting both. Props and hand support keep the action alive rather than forcing. Once both legs are in position to your best ability, hold and gradually lower the hips. Finally, add rolling drills across the spine—using movement, rhythm, and play to deepen the leg-behind-head placement without overthinking. The emphasis is on dynamism, safe progressions, and playful exploration rather than straining for the final shape. Model - Romain Prevost
