In this brief instructional video, the speaker demonstrates three of the promised thirty hands‑on adjustment techniques for the yoga pose Adho Mukha Svanasana (downward‑facing dog). The adjustments are given playful, informal names – “boot job,” “in‑between the legs,” and “dirty feet” – and each is described step‑by‑step, emphasizing how to position the hands, apply pressure, and release. The speaker cautions that such intimate physical contact should only be performed on students the instructor knows well. The video concludes with a promotional call‑to‑action, inviting viewers to enroll in the instructor’s 200‑hour or 300‑hour online yoga teacher training and to follow the channel for future content.

Chapters

30 ways to adjust someone in Adho Mukha Svanasana, or downward facing dog. First adjustment is the boot job. You take your hand and bring it onto the hips and then press your butt into their back so that they get nice and lengthened along the spine. The second way is the inappropriate in between the legs. Bring your hands just above the knees, press back, and help them have an internal rotation of the legs as you're bringing the spine nice and long. Then go ahead and slowly release. Obviously, you really are only going to do that on people you know super well. Third way I like to call the dirty feet. Bring your dirty feet onto their hips, straighten your legs, and press back. If you'd like to get really close with your yoga students and build relationships and bonds that actually last forever and are no joke, then I invite you to apply to my online yoga teacher training, 200-hour or 300-hour. And definitely light up the follow button so that we see you in the next video.
