ever get into a posture like WTF

I took a class from a new teacher, which I love doing. I am a new teacher and this gives me reassurance that it does takes time to be an all star teacher that knows what to say straight for over an hour, with the perfect flow.

We were doing Frog posture and it didn't feel right. Maybe I am just not flexible that way, but it felt like maybe this wasn't a posture. Whatever it was I was NOT doing it correctly, as I still have bruises on my knees from the experience. This was my WTF moment this week.

Frog Pose (Bhekasana), can also be called Mandukasana. Plenty of sites out there already talk through specific steps to do it so I am/have been refraining from recreating the wheel in my blog (http://www.yogajournal.com/poses/2465).

Typically looks like:

 And from what I could find online also looks like this within Yin Yoga:

 

Yet another new yoga popping up, this seems to be a deeper slower yoga (Iyengar-ish). However some new postures, reaching different areas?!?
As I said I found this way of frog painful (in the bruised, this is wrong kind of way). Though I realised I am super tight on my inner thigh, maybe a good way to work it?



How beautiful is Frog in ballet, a little more visual appealing ;)
