Standing Pose Sequence
Strength
•
18m
This short class moves you through classic standing poses such as Warrior 2 Pose (Virabhadrasana II), Chair Pose (Utkatasana), Warrior 1 Pose (Virabhadrasana II), Side Angle Pose (Utthita Parsvakonasana) and Triangle Pose (Trikonasana), interspersed with the four variations of Wide Legged Forward Bend (Prasarita Padottanasana). Practising the standing poses regularly strengthens the legs and helps you to feel stable and grounded. Note: I recommend you do some warming-up first as we go straight into the standing poses.
Props required: None needed.
Mat direction: Long edge of the mat facing the screen.
