how great that you're going to work with her. the photo of her in astavakrasana is beautiful. you know, that is a pose that when we're researching poses at home it's fun to do. you basically dangle one leg over the shoulder and the lower leg crosses the first one to hold up the assembly. it's a pose that Tim Miller lets people experiment with in workshops.
cheers,
Arturo

this is an anusaran teacher, but in his demo he does an entry into astavakrasana, not the way it's taught in ashtanga. but at least it visually explains the asasna. i just stumbled upon this.
