When people do Ustrasana this way for the first time, they’re usually in shock.

They can’t believe it when the same pose that normally feels terrible in their lower back suddenly feels spacious, strong and even liberating.

I used to keep this approach to Ustrasana under lock and key. I’d only share it in my in-person classes and workshops (never online!) and ask people not to post it on social media. I knew this was a Detour golden nugget and didn’t want it splashed all over the internet.

Then I realized that keeping this approach a “secret” was doing more harm than good. Limiting access to this way of teaching Camel meant that people would continue to experience pain, fear and frustration in this pose. Knowing I could change that, it was time to share from a place of abundance.
