How can I modify Downward Dog for a lady that is heavy ?

Hi Theresa,
In a mixed level class, I encourage students who are challenged with Adho Mukha Svanasana (downward facing dog) to hold cat pose instead. If the class is practicing full Surya Namaskara’s (sun salutations), modifiers can practice cat/cow instead and still stay with the pace of the breath and class.
