Yoga Standing Postures oga Standing Posture Benefits



In this series we'll be talking about and focusing on Standing Postures. Now, all of our standing postures begin with the feet. The feet are so very important in our standing postures. So we'll pay lot of attention to the feet and the stability there, moving up through the body and into our core muscles. All of our standing postures give us strength in the legs especially, but, into the core muscles as well, from the abdomen, around into the back. So we'll focus some attention on that strength, but, our standing postures also give us flexibility in these muscles as well. So they provide a nice balance between strength and flexibility. So we'll begin the series with a breathing exercise. We'll begin with Ujayi breath or Victoria's breath and we'll move into our standing postures, and then into our balance postures. Again, coming back to that stability in the feet and moving up through the body.
