Transcript of This Video:
So we’re going to a pose called chair pose, also called awkward pose and you’ll see why in a minute. We’re going to start by placing the big toes together so your heels are just about an inch apart, and the knees are pressing against one another. And standing nice and tall, you start to sit back into your heels, sitting your weight back into your hips and your heels, a little bit further with each breath, just like you’re sitting down into a chair – pressing your knees together, and then taking your hands together at the heart and then reaching up. And if it’s comfortable for your shoulders you can keep your hands together, for a lot of us it’s more comfortable for us to have our hands shoulder width apart, and tilting the chin up, and sitting her for several breaths, keep releasing your weight down. This is s wonderful strengthener for the back body, for the legs, the hamstrings, the glutes, and inhaling, reaching up and bringing the hands back to the heart.
