CHATURANGA DANDASANA: BEOND A SIMPLE PUSH UP
A Step-By-Step Online Course for Yogis Who Want Chaturanga to Feel Strong, Supported, and Sustainable, Not Painful, Rushed, or Confusing.
If you practice vinyasa yoga, you move through Chaturanga a lot. And if itâs never felt quite right in your body⊠THIS course is for you.
Chaturanga isnât just another pose.
Itâs a transition you repeat again and again, often without much instruction, and it quietly shapes how safe, strong, and confident your entire practice feels.
đł Most classes move too fast to break it down.
đł Most cues are incomplete.
đł And most students assume the discomfort means theyâre doing something wrong.
It doesnât.
Everywhere you look, Chaturanga is treated like it should be simple.
Lower halfway. Hug your elbows. Keep moving. And yetâŠ
No one really explains how to build strength and support here without wrecking your shoulders or wrists.
â Youâve probably watched more than a few âperfect Chaturangaâ demos. The ones where it looks effortless. Fast. Clean.
â You try to copy what you see, or engage a little more, or just get through it.
â And somehow, it still feels heavy. Or rushed. Or just⊠off.
Instead, youâre left with a Chaturanga that feels inconsistent.
Some days Chaturanga feels tolerable. Other days it irritates your shoulders, wrists, or lower back.
Not because you did something different, but because youâre repeating the same movement without clear, consistent guidance.
Most cues you hear focus on one piece at a time: elbows, depth, or strength.
Theyâre not wrong. Theyâre just incomplete.
So you keep adjusting, hoping something will click. Usually, it doesnât.
đ Whatâs missing is Understanding how Chaturanga should actually be set up and supported.
Chaturanga is where a lot of practices fall apart.
Arms give out. Shoulders drop too low. Wrists or lower back take the load.
You feel it immediately, and it gets worse the more times you repeat it in a fast class.
đ Thatâs not a strength issue. Itâs a technique issue.
-

You feel Chaturanga in your shoulders first; pinching, strain, or fatigue that builds fast.
-

Your wrists take more weight than they should and start to ache.
-

Your lower back dips or tightens because your core canât hold the load.
-

Your elbows feel stressed, sometimes sore, sometimes oddly unstable.
-

Your neck and upper back tense up as you try to get through the transition.
-

And the more times you repeat it in a fast class, the worse all of this feels.
Chaturanga is often taught as if thereâs only one way to do it.
Chaturanga is usually taught at speed.
Youâre asked to lower, hover, and push back up, often several times per class, without much time to check what your shoulders, wrists, or spine are actually doing.
If something starts to hurt, the assumption is that youâll either modify or push through.
That doesnât mean the pose is bad. It means the way itâs commonly practiced doesnât leave much room for learning it properly.
I know this to be true because Iâve taught a lot of yoga⊠to a lot of different bodies. And over time, you start to see patterns.
So if youâreâŠ
A little over classes where Chaturanga happens so fast you never really get your bearingsâŠ
Quietly wondering why this pose still feels like such a struggle, even though youâve been practicing for a whileâŠ
Ready to build strength and control in a way that doesnât leave your shoulders, wrists, or back feeling cranky afterwardâŠ
This is for YOU.
CHATURANGA MADE DOABLE, FINALLY! đȘ

You may have tried to fix Chaturanga by just doing more of it. More reps in class.
More pushing through when your arms are already tired.
More lowering quickly so you can keep up.
But if your body needs more strength or clearer setup right now, trying to keep up with fast flows just leads to strain. You feel it in your shoulders, wrists, or lower back long before anything actually improves.
This course was built to slow Chaturanga down.
So you can learn how to set it up properly, build the strength it actually requires, and practice it in a way that carries over when you return to regular classes.
Hereâs how weâll make it happenâŠ
Hi, I'm your yoga teacherNatalia Rennie
Chaturanga didnât come easily to me, but Iâve spent years working with it, in my own practice and in thousands of hours of teaching. And I kept seeing the same pattern: people werenât bad at this pose. They were being rushed through it.
Most students are strong enough to learn Chaturanga. They just arenât given the time or clarity to do it well.
So I slowed it down and focused on setup, strength, and control. That changed how Chaturanga feels for me, and for many students Iâve taught.
This course comes straight from that work. No trends. No guesswork. Just what consistently helps Chaturanga hold up in real yoga practice.
If Chaturanga feels hit-or-miss, youâre not alone. It usually just hasnât been taught in a way that makes sense yet.

Chaturanga can feel frustrating for a lot of reasons.
Itâs quick. Itâs repetitive. And itâs easy for strain to show up before strength does.
This course was created to give that pose more space.
⥠Space to understand what itâs asking of your body.
⥠Space to build strength without overloading your shoulders or wrists.
⥠Space to practice without rushing.
You may notice things start to feel more organized, more supported, and less effortful over time.
And if that kind of approach sounds helpful, itâs here for you.

âand right then, I knew I was working with an expert.
There was a specific moment when you corrected a position of mine. I was doing a Chaturanga and you noticed my elbows, provided correction and explained why.â

âWithin just a few weeks of practicing under your guidance, I achieved postures that I had previously believed were beyond my capabilities, despite having practiced for years.
Your approach to yoga prioritizes quality over quantity and is characterized by a systematic, step-by-step process for each posture. Your sessions emphasize the âhow toâ aspects of getting into a particular posture, providing a detailed breakdown I had not encountered in my yoga classes. By breaking down each posture into smaller, more manageable steps, this approach enabled me to work towards achieving the peak posture with greater precision and ease.â
â LARA ZAWAEDI, LEBANON

âYou have a very special way of explaining asanas, breaking them down, showing what matters â
which is not doing the perfect handstand or the most incredible arm balances, but it is more about what the asana is doing for your body. Your methodology is unique. It makes me understand certain things better and remember them when doing other classes.â
