Katieee! This was a quick tip I filmed awhile ago addressing this exact same "issue".. it's really common! Watch (it's only 3 minutes) and let me know if it makes sense: https://youtu.be/6OeXXT2eu_A

Confirm with me that you've watched both tutorials as well so I don't sound like a broken record hehe 

So excited to help you towards this one!

Susan Papp Mlodzienski see the difference in body position… ideally this is the position where the contact point shift happens in the knee pit so when we lay back, it feels like a “normal” layback :)) this is a screenshot from the 2nd demo in the link on this thread

Susan Papp Mlodzienski yes exact same for me too. That shift in the “knee skin” (lol) contact point makes me drop too if I don’t do a very intentional tuck of the tailbone, squeeze of the glutes, engagement of the abs… before I lean back. It’s a tough one for sure!
