Poses

Knees

• 

  Tolasana (Scale Pose)

  The head, torso, and legs hang from and balance on the hands like the pans of an old-fashioned scale.

• 

  Urdhva Prasarita Eka Padasana (Standing Split)

  When you practice Standing Splits focus on the stretch in your quad and hamstring, not how high you can lift your leg.

• 

  Prasarita Padottanasana (Wide-Legged Forward Bend)

  The pose as described here is technically known as Prasarita Padottanasana I.

• 

  Uttanasana (Standing Forward Bend)

  Uttanasana will wake up your hamstrings and soothe your mind.

• 

  Upavistha Konasana (Wide-Angle Seated Forward Bend)

  A good preparation for most of the seated forward bends, twists, and the wide-leg standing poses.
