Is there much downward dog - plank - lunge stuff in today’s practice ? Unfortunately I think this has been making my sore foot* worse in the last few days 
* have wear and tear btwn talus and navicular, and it’s not happy right now

I'm pausing myself as the adductor still doesn't like doing anything lunge-like...doesn't help when I have to demonstrate things (very carefully) when teaching yoga. I needed to this morning as I had a complete newbie to yoga...his first downward dog was very interesting! It's a good start! I'll just work on him in the initial few weeks as his hammies are very tight!

I've already forgotten everything I did this morning so can't answer your question fraggs. The hardest bit for my feet was the balancing on one leg at the end though. My feet/ankles are not keen on balancing.

Day 7 completed.
No down dog today - it's entirely hand to floor free and is all done standing.
I wasn't great at the balances. I toppled at least once in each held pose. Best if you DON'T look at the screen of course. Quad stretch thing is fine if I don't look - but I want to perfect the back leg extended thing cos it looks pretty if done right.
It's a bit boring for the first five mins or so.

Well done Katie 😊
Day 6 was quite tough and the lowering and lifting from boat pose hurt my lower spine (the boney bit) so I put a pillow on the mat to sit on and it felt loads better, and I managed to complete them all 😊
I followed it with day 7 'Stretching' and I'm feeling pretty energised

Yes Sharkie, I was waiting for the session proper to start, but once it did I quite enjoyed it 😊

Just finished days 2 and 3 so I’m a bit behind! I loved day 3. My favourite so far. I actually really enjoy downward facing dogs as I get such a good all over stretch but I appreciate that they must be challenging if you have sore wrists. I tuned out some of her chatter but enjoyed it more than I expected.

I like down dogs too - and anything triangle-ish. I also like anything that involves back extension - like cobras, because I think most of us get hung up on forward bends and neglect back extension.
