I know how challenging and frustrating lotus pose is because I get asked about it all the time. That's why I created this online lotus pose workshop for you.
This workshop is easy to follow and extremely practical. It will help you understand not just how to do lotus, but why the posture comes together as it does anatomically. No matter where your lotus is right now, we'll show you how to work with it. You'll see everything from techniques for how to get into lotus, to preparations for lotus, to working with knee pain if you have it.
As always I strive to make the complex more simple, practical, and understandable. There's no need for expensive and time-consuming travel to attend a workshop. Enjoy this online workshop right in your own living room!
David Keil has taught anatomy in yoga teacher trainings since 1998.
More to the point: he practices. The anatomy in his courses lives on the mat, not in a lab.
