Season 7 | EP. 8

So I got asked to break down saddle pose, and honestly, I was excited but also like... this is gonna be tough to explain just through audio. That's why I partnered with Tummee to create a visual companion PDF with tons of variations you can actually see.

In this episode, I walk through everything from basic hero pose modifications to full saddle alternatives. We're talking blocks, bolsters, blankets, straps, even upside-down chairs. Plus, I cover what to do when saddle just isn't happening for someone, no matter how many props you throw at them.

Whether you're teaching saddle for the quad stretch, the backbend, or both, I've got you covered with options for everybody. This isn't beginner stuff, this is the master class version with real solutions for real students.

And let me know in the comments what pose you want me to break down next.
