Are props available to you in class? I encourage my students who have this issue to sit on a block, or the verrrry front edge of a folded blanket. It helps tremendously.
Yes, my knees are higher than my waistline.

In this particular class, we don't use props, but we do bring a blanket for our little "quiet time" (read: "nap" for me!) at the end of class. I'll just fold up that blanket and sit at the front edge, as you suggest. I'll be much more comfy that way.

Thanks, Lauren!
