Chaturanga is everywhere in vinyasa yoga—but let’s be real, most people are just muscling through it (or avoiding it entirely). If your chaturanga feels awkward, weak, or downright frustrating, it’s time to finally crack the code on this essential pose.
In this 90-minute master class, you’ll get a detailed, step-by-step breakdown that helps you refine chaturanga at every stage—whether you're working with knees down, lowering with control, jumping back, or rolling over your toes with ease. With my background in anatomy, I’ll guide you through targeted muscle activation drills, outside-the-box prep work, and creative prop setups to troubleshoot common challenges.
In the Chaturanga Master Class you'll discover how to:
Organize your shoulder girdle for strength and stability
Recruit your legs (yes, your legs!) to reduce the load on your arms
Refine your jump back technique so it’s controlled, not chaotic
Finally understand the mechanics behind rolling over both toes at once
Plus, you’ll get the Chaturanga Variations Manual, a PDF packed with my top 10 teaching tools—from prop setups to strength drills—so you can continue refining your practice (or help your students master theirs).
This master class is for you if:
You struggle with chaturanga and aren’t sure if you’re doing it “right”
Your shoulders, elbows, or wrists feel cranky every time you lower down
You’ve been told to “engage your core” but don’t know what that actually means in chaturanga
You tend to flop to the floor or collapse in the middle of the movement
You want to refine your technique, build strength, and learn variations that meet you where you are
You’re a teacher looking for creative, effective ways to help your students master this essential transition
If any of this sounds familiar, the Chaturanga Master Class will give you the tools, techniques, and confidence to transform your practice.
Chaturanga doesn’t have to feel like a mystery—or a struggle.
With the right approach, you can build the strength, control, and coordination to make this essential transition feel powerful and efficient. Whether you’re working on refining the basics, exploring variations like jump backs, or learning smart ways to teach this move to others, this master class will give you the knowledge and tools to forever change your chaturanga.
If you’re tired of struggling through chaturanga and ready to make it feel strong, efficient, and effortless (or at least less like a faceplant waiting to happen), this master class is for you. Let’s dive in!
