prasarita padottanasana C

[Guest guest]

i noticed that guruji taught this posture a

little differently than have other instructors. guruji

had us invert our hands so the palms were facing

outward, away from our bodies. every other instructor i

have had has had us just clasp our hands so that the

palms faced inwards towards each other. it is a lot

more difficult to have them facing outward, my hands

begin to splay and pull apart before i get any where

near the limit of how far i could otherwise rotate my

arms and shoulders. is this a newer variation he has

started or has he always taught it that way? i can't

remember if wanted us to rotate our hands that way in

halasana and karnapidasana
