Does this require more flexibility than grabbing the pole in CKR? I'm not yet confident in the security of my aerial remi sit so I'm working on getting confident higher up on the pole in a remi before I attempt this.
I can do a Ballerina and a bridge.:) Just feel like I need just a little bit more of abdominal strength still but I will give it a try! Thank you Veena! <3
Being able to do a bridge is helpful too.
If I could see what you're doing that would help. It's possible IF you have the flexibility to reach the hand back to help. To lean back enough to reach the pole requires a lot 9f flexibility. If you can do a Ballerina this is probably accessible.
Thank you Veena. I was talking about remi layback. As I leaned the pull on my both quads was more intense than I expected, but I think it might be because the lower part of my hooked (upper) leg comes inside of my wrapping knee way too high. I can see yours is lower. So I will try to adjust that next time :) I am a bit afraid that if I lean all the way back, I won't be able to come up as it must be harder than doing it from cross knee/ankle release? Is it possible to put a hand for support on the pole under while raising the body up?
You should feel it more on the upper leg not lower shin.
Today I tried to lean back a little from remi sit for the first time but I felt a lot of pressure on both quads, not on the lower ankle so much. Does it mean that my upper knee is too high or my guads/hipflexors are still too tight for this move?
😘
@veena I'd love to see some kind of program for learning this. I have never been able to lay back from the Remi sit. I don't practice very often. But It's scary. Maybe a program like your 30 days would help me and others who are scared to do this but really want to
I'm so scared to try it. lol I hear it really takes some getting used to.

I will get this 😊
Yes, I feel it does, but it might just be because both legs are trapped intead of CKR where one is free.
