Yes, i learned from hanging around parenting forums that people (kids included) shouldn't do the W sit. I move my kids legs when I see them sitting like that. I never sit like that, but beacuse I HAVE to try things for myself, when I read that I tried it and hurt my knee. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_confused.gif

hmm in the basic dvd, they have alternative of only doing one leg at a time (and it's under my bum). I think that one is ok for the knee as it's just a quad stretch…?

@emotioncatcher- Which DVD did you get and how are you liking it? I ended up ordering the entire set. I really like them. I find them to be challenging. Been doing in sequence for a week and a half now and see results already. I am foam rolling before and after. Some of the moves in backbend, I cannot do yet and I need variation for the scorpion cheast stand etc.. Need to google a baby version or a sequence of learning to get into the move. The rest I found I could do with putting on long scks and using the sock where I cant yet grab my foot in that position. I am really enjoying them! Thanks for the info. I alays need something to challnge me or I get bored quickly. Love these.

@Vaudeville- I feeel I have benefited form thse split DVDs in addiion to Veena's.
They are not exactly the same. The VB is a bit more intese and uses the blocks to achieve oversplits- the poses seem more challenging to hold for the entire minute to me. (if you are going a long w DVD or veena split lesson- I know she says you can pause and hold as long as you like- I just never do, simply follow the routine!) The other videos – inward an outward joints really focus on those areas you need flexible tofully open up- I just love them. I was also dying for a back routine. This one is intense but I feel has given me what I have been looking for.
It is challenging and I love the sequence and flow. THats just my opinion though, I love mixing it up a bit otherwise get bored and I think my muscles also get bored wit the same repetiotion. I ordered ALtheas splits as well and will rotate and incorporate all of them.

@paulettepoles: i bought the ebooks for side and front splits and like them, too. when i don´t have a complete hour i only do the exercises i only do those exercises which are necessary for the splits and leave the stretches for other body parts out or do them only very short. although i didn´t work on my side splits for a while before i could reach a very low position at the first time i followed the exercises.
the only thing i miss are some explanations about the splits. in the front split ebook one exercise is a front split (but there are different variations) and in the side split ebook you don´t even do a side split. i do one of course afterwards as this is what i bought the ebooks for… but i really miss some tipps to get a good and right position in the splits and stuff like that.

is the scorpio the one where you bend your legs over your head while doing a chest stand?

Are the Valentino Brothers ebooks still available? I was curious about them and now I can't find them on the website.
