<<My backbends are lousy, but I've been

told, by close student sof KPJ, to get into 2nd series.

So if there is a litmus test that is<br>

communicated to other teachers, then standing up from urdhva

dhanurasana probably isn't it.>><br><br>Standing up

from backbend and being able to drop back and stand up

3 times is a necessary but not sufficient condition

to starting 2nd series in Mysore. I know, I was just

there and asked the very question of my dear friend

Sharath.<br><br>El Senor Pinche Wey

i've read here, i think, that back bends are not

really part of the first series. if that is correct,

it's interesting that one would have to demonstrate

proficiency in them to progress to the next series. perhaps

they are now considered part of the first series.

hmm, i don't know if backbends are officially

part of Primary -- I think they are? What my

experience has been & what I have seen w/ other students in

class with me is that when you are a beginner, you may

do backbending x3 from the ground, then eventually

the teacher will start coming around to assist you

with standing dropbacks -- but again, i would love to

hear what Guruji actually does in Mysore (until I can

get there & find out for myself that is......)..
