Summary
It’s been a while since we devoted an episode to answering listener questions, so that’s exactly what we’re doing this week.
In this episode, Jason tackles a few of the questions that have been submitted recently such as:
*Internal or external hip rotation in forward folds? (A simple question with a not-so-simple answer)
*Does that upper arm bone externally rotate in Chaturanga?
*Is passively stretching a muscle or group of muscles (like the psoas and other hip flexors) that is both tight and weak a good idea? Or is there a better way to approach?
*Any tips on floating from Uttanasana to sit and jumping through?

| 0:38.3 | is happening all around, but in San Francisco, |
| 0:42.4 | one of the biggest chain of yoga studios announced that they |
| 0:46.0 | were closing this week. Yeah and you know when we say chain of yoga studios it can |
| 0:50.2 | sound kind of impersonal, but one, they continue to employ a lot of people and they have a ton of good teachers and they have a big community. |
| 1:00.0 | And two, Yoga Tree really was a staple in the San Francisco Bay Area, but especially the San Francisco community for a long time. |
| 1:10.0 | I mean, I remember when they opened, I think they opened in around 2000 2001 and it is God |
| 1:20.1 | it's just one of those things that reminds you that everything is alive and everything goes through cycles. |
| 1:25.2 | Because that studio was the epicenter of yoga in this city for a really long time. So not to dwell on it, but yeah, to take a moment and |
| 1:36.9 | acknowledge I think all that they did through the years, they had a couple of different |
