The elusive jump back and jump through movements in Ashtanga Yoga aren’t as inaccessible as you may think when you try these steps, learn the specific technique, and understand the secret to making it all happen.

In this tutorial, we’re showing you 5 steps to access stronger, more graceful JUMP BACKS AND JUMP THROUGHS in your Ashtanga practice. These challenging vinyasas require specific techniques, so we’re going through 5 progressive steps you can do at home when you’re working on these transitional movements. With Jelena’s demonstration, you’ll see alignment cues in action such as correct placement for your hands, how to position your back, and where to place your feet as you work through the steps to gain more strength in your body.
