Re: Myoga (free hatha 1)

u mean her upper body is not reaching enough or the location of the foot she held?
sometimes i found that lots postures have a bit diff in diff yoga centre( i tried Physical, Bikram, Pure, Living Yoga, hehee~! ^_^). i did ask instructor (not Icy) according to this question. the instructor told me that according to diff yoga style, there are a bit diff except on some exact postures such as tree pose, child pose....etc. such as shoulder stand, in ashtanga yoga, feet shld point to the sky, but in hatha yoga, u can flex ur feet thus u can feel the stretch of hamstring.
i think it just like when u got depression, diff theory got diff therapy & explanation lor.
be true, unlike Maggie & Frankie (the other popular instructors in Myoga), Icy seldom do a whole posture to demonstrate, she likes asking members to do & then walk around to correct every one. she likes talking/teaching at the same time while correcting members' postures. i like her presentation anyway coz she is not only ask u how to "make" the posture, she teaches members how to imagine to use/ feel our body. she teaches members use which part of muscle. when she find lots members don't understand, she asks memebrs to do it over again & again & try to use diff wordings to let members understand.her teaching method is great. that's what i appreciate & what i concern. the indian instructor i told u before is very good at showing postures but he doesn't know how to teach. that's meaningless.
better a witty fool than a foolish wit
