Camel Pose Tutorial - Camel Backbend Yoga Tutorial

Not sure how to do camel pose? Watch this tutorial

Hey yogis, this week I'm bringing you another yoga pose tutorial on camel pose! Camel or Ustrasana as it's called in Sanskrit, is a very deep backbend that I personally also struggle with. If you find it difficult or uncomfortable - you're not alone!

Discomfort in a pose isn't necessarily a bad thing but pain DEFINITELY is. You should never feel pain in a pose. In this video I'll give you tips and tricks on how to do camel pose safely and effectively to relieve lower back pain. You'll need to have one block close by.

If you have any other pose tutorials you'd like me to do, let me know :)

Thanks for watching,
Kassandra

Great basic building blocks leading into the full pose. I now am reevaluating my presentation to my students, and myself. Namaste.

[veronicaramirezh]

Yes, at the moment I opened my chest, wow, I could do it, thank you very much.

[kavitharamakrishnan]

This is one of the pose, I find very difficult, the way u explained where to focus..is superb

[benuwuowo]

thank you very much, this is actually the only good TUTORIAL video about how to do it correctly and how to improve it XD

[fitbmx]

I am going to try this tonight during my practice, thanks for the great tutorial. When it comes to yoga I always trust you to have my back! (see what I did there?) 😂😂😂

[joycefrank]

Hi Kassandra, thanks for this tutorial!! It was really helpful. Do you have a tutorial for chataranga? I am not sure if my form for that pose is correct.
Thanks for being you!!🥰🧘🏻‍♀️

[dkulikowski]

Thank you very, very much for the guidance on this pose. I will try the 'block' method to see the difference it makes. Namaste dear Kassandra.

[sangeetajaswani]

Tiryaka bhujangasana, this is one asanas where we have so many doubts, ...pls make video on that

[saryudashkin]

Omigod, Kassandra!! The block between the thighs was the game changer I needed! I touched both my heels for the first time! Thank you, thank you, thank you!! ❤️❤️

I’ve just discovered your channel and as a beginner yogi, this video is amazing so helpful, you’re so informative and could watch you for hours. Thank you so much! I came across this pose online and instantly wanted to try it because there’s just something so beautiful about it. Thanks so much! ☺️

Thank you Kassandra! I really like camel pose, but I still struggle with it sometimes too. My yoga teacher always tells me with backbends that I'm opening the front of my body, rather than closing the back, and that really helps :)

[jenniferdouglas-joseph]

Thank you Kassandra for this very essential tutorial. I also have trouble with this pose. This is very helpful! Thanks again! 🙏🏾💕

[valerieantoinette]

Thanks for the tutorial! I have low back problems (3 bulging discs) and have to really concentrate on lengthening the low spine. I also get light headed in this pose but I think it was because I was falling back more into it then lifting into it. And fun fact... I'm in Newfoundland and will be attending your workshop Friday! I'm looking forward to it!

[ВячеславЗасидко]

Would you mind explaining how to make NAULI??? Many Thanks!!!

[chenyi]

Thank you so much for the very detailed explanation, I made it with a very useful block! It’s really helpful!

[aliasofia]

This tutorial was so useful, I struggle more with camel pose than with bird of paradise haha. Could you also please do a tutorial on extended side angle and warrior 1? I always feel like I do them with wrong alignment..

[celestema]

One thing I'll add is that make sure your lower abs are engaged. This ensures that you don't dump your weight into your lower back or bend into your lower back.

[seematalwar]

Love this tutorial! I would love to see a sequence for side planks.

[Donna-S]

Great video! I only really enjoy camel at the end of a hot yoga practice and my body's all warm and happy haha 😂

[scizorstar]

Thank you! I can finally do a proper camel pose after watching your video. Engaging the adductor muscle is definitely the tip! And my back dont feel like it is going to break. Kudos!
