In these tutorials, I break down common asanas step-by-step to help you practice safely, avoid strain, and actually feel the benefits. ## Photos and videos - [Video: Most people do Upward-Facing Dog incorrectly, which can strain the lower back. This video shows the common mistakes and then breaks down the correct alignment: shoulder-level gap, toes up, and chest out with shoulders rolled back for a safe, effective backbend.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/827c0090-eb1c-4888-ac3b-c170a43d0d93) - [Video: If you struggle with Baddha Konasana (Bound Angle Pose), this tutorial is for you.

Whether you are struggling to touch your toes in Uttanasana or feeling a sharp pinch in your back during Upward Facing Dog, the issue is usually just a lack of proper alignment or using the wrong muscle groups. My videos show you the how and why so you can use props or micro-adjustments to finally own the pose. Yoga is not about how deep you can stretch; it is about how safely you can hold the position to gain benefits. I see so many students in my Rohini studio who have been practicing for years but still carry tension because of misaligned habits. In these tutorials, I break down foundational poses—like the forward fold and backbends—to help you fix these subtle errors. ### Why Alignment Matters When you force a pose, you aren't releasing tension; you are creating new trauma. My teaching style is influenced by Hatha and Iyengar traditions, which emphasize using props to create space. If you cannot touch your toes, we do not force the spine to round. We use techniques like micro-bending the knees or using a belt to ensure you lengthen the hamstrings without straining the lower back. ### Tutorials for Common Challenges - **Upward Facing Dog:** Most people crunch their lumbar spine here. Learn to roll the shoulders back and engage the core so the chest opens instead of the back collapsing. - **Forward Bends:** If your hamstrings are tight, rounding your spine to reach for your feet is counterproductive. I show you how to hinge from the hips to protect your discs. - **Hip Openers:** We use preparatory exercises to safely unlock tight joints rather than jumping into full expressions of a pose. Practice is not about looking perfect. It is about understanding your body’s current capacity and working with it. If you are tired of generic YouTube videos that do not explain the 'why' behind the movement, these guides are for you. Use these tips to refine your daily practice, and if you are still stuck, I am here to help you adjust your technique in person. ## About Tushar Bhatt I am Tushar.
