Here's how you fix clunky, weird chaturanga in your classes. You're gonna take a nice strap. You're gonna make sure that you have a nice strap. It's worth it, treat yourself, okay? Get one that has a nice metal clasp here so that we can make sure that we can hold it tight. You're gonna bring it here in between your student's arms. She's gonna scrape, scratch you with her nails. That's fine, she bougie, it's good. Make sure that that strap is in line with the middle of her forearms. From a high plank position, look forward, come forward over the wrist slightly, bend the elbows as you come down. Allowing your student to feel what a chaturanga feels like without having the full weight of chaturanga. And you can see that she's been holding this chaturanga dandasana for some time, long enough for you to light up the follow button so that we see you in the next video.
