Tammy,
I know yogis are not supposed to hate on anything but there are a few poses I find less than desirable.
First there is half standing forward bend. I bet I look like the hunchback of Notre Dame when doing this pose. I don’t think any teacher has corrected this pose of mine because they think I might have leprosy and be contagious.
Full Boat pose is another undesirable. I feel as if I am having Parkinson shakes when in this position and that I’m doing permanent damage to my back.
Dragonfly is not a fave either. Most women in yoga classes ace this pose and can put their elbows on the ground. Me, I can’t get my torso to lean forward at all. I feel like a wax statue waiting to be sent to a taxidermist with my torso leaning backwards.
Do you have any poses not on your preferred list?
