Iyengar-style Standing Poses At The Wall
Hatha Yoga
•
28m
This class is all about checking your alignment in some of the standing poses. Using a wall to lean against, you'll use it not only to help you balance but also as a reference point to help you line your body up.

Mat direction: Long side of the mat facing the screen.
