Pre Iftar primary

Yesterday was a good Primary - because I finished it in one session, even with Savasana, although that Savasana was only for 5 mins.

 I started at 6 and finished at 725. Perfect timing for iftar.

 Not too tired or thirsty or drained, but I felt strong instead. Excited to do this. However halfway through Janu Sirsasana I was thinking how nice if I was at the finishing postures right now.

 Things that baffles me: my chaturranga. Ever since I figured out how to 'round my upper back' I worried that maybe I've been coming down to chaturranga in a pike position - that is, butt high in the air. When i consciously lowered my hip my upper back automatically collapsed, even if I tried it with all my might to round it. I guess the strength isnt there yet. Need to work on it. Otherwise things felt good, no hiccups, still working on the Chakrasana, and the Urdhva Padmasana, the latter I am not that bothered. Come to think of it, even if I never nailed Chakrasana I think I would be ok. It will come and if it doesn't yoga is not just asanas.

ramadhan primary

First ashtanga practice in ramadhan, post iftar. It was physically tiring, maybe because I didn't really drink a lot of water. I did a complete primary (complete being with half vinyasa) up until upavistha konasana and then I moved on to one bridge and one wheel, the final 3 postures and then savasana which was well and much deserved. I missed the practice and enjoyed it so much. I totally loved the janu sirsasana series because I get to relax.

 I'm getting better in Utthita Hasta Padangustasana. It's will always be a hit or miss posture but today it was a miss.
