Foundations of Asanas ---Trikonasana/Triangle pose

Yoga is accessible to everyone. For asana practice, good yoga teachers offer physical landmarks and modifications (using straps, blocks, blankets, and bolsters) to meet them efficiently. Yes we are doing the same pose, tho we don’t have to meet at the same posture. Trikonasana/Triangle pose, there are quite a few options that you can modify.

🔷For tight hamstrings: 1. Set your lower hand on your ankle, your shin, or even your thigh other than placing on the ground. 2. Use block if you have, or simply use books. Set your hand on the block to elevate your torso. Adjust the height that you feel good with. 3. Bring your feet closer. 4. Slightly bend front knee. . 🔷For tight shoulders: Simply Set the top hand on your waist instead of reaching up toward the sky. All in all, Make sure your body is in Alignment at this pose. Heels aligned with each other. Feet grounded. Hinge your torso sideway from the hip joint, stacking your shoulders, opening your chest. Keep a long spine all the way thru the crown of your head, Slightly tucking your chin.

Enjoy the modification other than hate it. Everyone’s body is built up uniquely and differently. Even for myself, My body totally gives me different signals at different times within a day. Each morning, I need to do a few prep poses before I’m able to make triangle pose. So what a big deal?! 😄💪🙏 #bemindful #yoga #yogaposes#yogateachers #asana #trianglepose#trikonasana #modification #options#yogaforall #yogastudent#yogapractice #yogaprogress#yogaeveryday #yogafam #yogaforlife#accessibleyoga #yogaisforeverybody#yogabody #yogaasana #igyoga#teaching #yogainstructor #ocyoga
