As a yoga teacher passionate about skeletal variation education, there are lots of "yoga cues" that make me cringe when I hear them.
Only a certain percentage of the people in the class will be able to attain them, because of their bone structure, or "skeletal variation".
Which means lots of other students will forever feel like they are not good at yoga.
The more you learn about the beautiful uniqueness of bone shape and joint movements for people, you let go of a sense of postures having "correct alignment", and more about the feeling and intention of the posture.
Here are three yoga cues to stop using in your classes:
1. "One day your heels will get to the floor in downward dog"
2. "Make sure your shoulders don't lift off the floor in a floor based twist"
3. "Your ears must line up with your biceps"
If you want to find out more about how important it is to understand skeletal variation for yoga teaching, check out my online course:
