Extended Triangle Pose is the foundational pose for a variety of standing yoga poses. It works to strengthen the hamstrings, thighs, and knees.
Shoulders
Extended Side Angle Pose (Utthita Parsvakonasana)
Extended side angle pose strengthens the shoulders, spine, legs, hamstrings, hips, and calves. It opens up the chest and shoulders and builds strength in the core muscles.
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.
Eight Angle Pose (Astavakrasana)
The Eight Angle Pose is a challenging arm balancing pose that works on core strength, mental focus, flexibility, and endurance power.
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.
