Another wonderful sequence Is here 😍
I want to let you know that the demo is still the one from the April sequence! Thanks! -

Hi! I don’t know if anyone has any suggestions, but when I twist my leg (like at 3:35 in Rachel’s video), I tend to twist my knee 🙁 Could this be due to a lack of hip mobility? Or is there something I could be aware of and practice? I did this same movement in a hammock class a few weeks ago and injured my right knee. I’m recovering and getting back to training, but seeing a similar movement in this sequence, even with the left leg, has made me a little afraid of doing it wrong again.
Thank you! -

I believe I am having the same difficulty as Soledad. I have flipped the combo to have the twisting on my right leg which is somewhat better. I am struggling to open up in to that beautiful split that Rachel does and while I know, NO ONE splits like Rachel, how can I come closer and then the twist up after the split isn’t happening for me. Is this a back flexibility thing? Thanks for the fun combo!

Due to a TFL injury on my left side, is it ok when we flip to the stag shape/diagonal split (1m 13) to use my right leg at the top instead without having to do a left sided hip key at the start? I did trial it low and it held me fine. I can’t do a left sided hip key currently as it strains my TFL so trying to find a happy medium 😂

Hello! I’m doing something “creative” and so seem to end up in the wrong wrap. I beat to knees, put tail between legs and think I’m doing something wrong as I pull above to straddle. In the Q&A can you please do that but slowly and explain what each leg does relative to the loops? It’s my first try so I mayyy figure it out. But I would love your tips just in case I don’t master it. THANKS!

I think you are doing what i was doing till I finally figured out how to bring my both legs to the right and invert. Initially I was just inverting and and hooking my right leg, then I noticed that I only had a loop around my thigh which wasnt feeling safe to let go and drop. Then I watched carefully and saw that we bring legs to the right to make sure we have a wrap around our belly then the drop is very safe.

Here, I made a video to illustrate what I mean and what “creative” wrap I was doing initially. 🙂 Please ignore my ugly feet and knees:)

Hi!!! At the end of the drop, I’m short of breath. Maybe the slack is too tight on my belly, or slightly towards my ribs… any suggestions?
I’m also very confused before the wheeldown, which I’ve never learned or practiced. It feels impossible to keep my torso horizontal, and maybe I’m gripping the tail too tightly and can’t rotate downward. -
