    Sometimes we get confused in yoga with cues such as " four points of the foot", the horseshoe of the feet. In this episode, senior Iyengar teacher Kathy Cook will demonstrate how to stay grounded and stand properly in yoga and in daily life. She will also explain how the ways we stand affect other parts of our body over time, such as our knees. If you are interested in how to stand properly, and the anatomy of yoga in general, this short clip would be useful for you.

      Petra, yes that's where it starts, from the outside, gross level to the innermost balance and quiet state within. When we're born those feet and legs come out kicking and moving with tremendous energy, such power that must be harnessed? Building your practice, and your mindset. Namaste 🌟🙏🏽

      connecting with our breath and our very being in the world.

      ​@@Marina-zp7wr Marina, basics are essential for knowing the correct actions required. Starting as a beginner over and over to observe what it is we don't know, we don't know proves again and again to be one of our best teachers. So many times we don't realize we have neglected or forgotten or due to injury changed what we once knew without being aware. Namaste, K

    Hi Kathy, Have always been wanting a break up like this. Thanks so much. What I didnt understand however is "moving the thighs back". Is it only upper thighs? Moving the entire thigh back also leads to knee locking too much..isnt it? What about the thigh rotation. You didn't broach it here...so wondering.

    • @DesaYogiIyengarYoga
      @DesaYogiIyengarYoga  Рік тому +1

      Hi P! Thanks for the question. Apologies for not being more clear.
      Standing in Tadasana is a big subject.
      Depending on what you are doing the thigh do different actions. Face different directions and lift in different areas.
      Front Thigh move back and slightly roll in and back. ( of course everyone is a bit different physically so it’s not one direction for all) broaden the back thighs and lift the front and back thighs. At the same time the calves move forward and lengthen, especially when you tend to hyperextend. From the feet lift the knees and entire leg. Front though faces forward, as do the knees. Careful not to lock the knees but lift instead. Hope this brings more clarity. 🙏🏻

      Hi Ruchi, Stand at the wall with back, feet a foot or so away. Slide down the wall till your low back is flush. Then push up slowly and feel the direction on the buttocks, descending. This is the action. Or lay on mat, knees bent with low back on the floor. Maintain that direction of the hips and slowly straighten the legs. See if that helps. If not please explain more or send me a photo. Namaste

    Why in Iyyangar yoga, toes in heels out position is recommended

    • @DesaYogiIyengarYoga
      @DesaYogiIyengarYoga  6 місяців тому

      Sangeeta, this action helps bring awareness to the elongation of the back leg. Both have to be active. Usually, if the toes move away, the heel jams the ankle and the back leg is not so accessible. Do both ways and see what you experience. Namaste
