Hello. I'm new to the group and to Astanga as well.

I have a bit of a problem that hopefully someone can help me with. I'm

having a lot of difficulty in doing the balancing poses. Of course my

being a newbie is a factor. But i was wondering, does my being

flatfooted also affect my balance? And if so, does this mean that i

will never be able to execute the balanced poses without

teetertottering? Is there such as thing as a flat footed yogi? Are

there flat footed practitioners in this group as well?

 

Thank you in advance for taking the time to answer my query. :)

I suffer from colapsing arches but have found that by implimenting

the loops and spirals (Anusara Yoga) I can now stay in poses longer

and get into them easier. (ankle loop, shin loop, hip loop, kidney

loop, shoulder loop, head loop... inward spiral of energy and

outward spiral of energy)

Although this is not ashtanga, I find it very helpful...

hello yogis, i have flat feet and 5 years of practice, balancing will come

in time!!! try to create an arch with the feet in the balancing asanas. it will

help!!! i believe that learning how to balance with this method as created a

slight arch in the feet!!! remember that the primary series is called yoga

therapy!!!
