Extended Triangle Pose is the foundational pose for a variety of standing yoga poses. It works to strengthen the hamstrings, thighs, and knees.
Beginner
Extended Puppy Pose (Uttana Shishosana)
This asana is a combination of the Downward Facing Dog Pose and the Child’s Pose. It deeply stretches the spine, arms, shoulders, neck, abdomen, hips, and hamstrings, releasing tension from these areas, making us feel refreshed and re-energized.
Easy Pose (Sukhasana)
The “Easy” pose is a cross-legged seated yoga asana often used as a posture for meditations by both beginners as well as advanced level practitioners. The name can be a little misleading since sitting in this posture for long durations of time requires a certain level of flexibility and strength in the back and shoulders.
Eagle Pose (Garudasana)
The Eagle pose is highly recommended to those with stiff shoulders, knees, or ankles. It removes stiffness upon regular practice and makes both arms and legs more flexible.
Cow Pose (Bitilasana)
Cow Pose is often practiced as the counter-pose of the Cat Pose. These two poses work towards gently loosening up the spine and releasing tension in the neck and shoulders areas.
