Strength, balance and alignment
Standing Yoga Poses
Standing yoga poses develop whole-body awareness while building strength through the legs, feet and core.
How to use this collection
Begin with a shorter or wider stance when balance is uncertain. Keep the knees responsive rather than rigid and use a wall when learning a new shape.
