sandeyeStanding Asana - Utkatasana
June 19th 2009 17:29
As with most standing poses, commence in Tadasana pose. As you inhale, raise your arms forward and upward so that they are in a straight line pointing toward the ceiling or sky. The palms should be joined.
As you exhale, bend your knees. Try to get your thighs parallel to the floor but keep your feet flat on the floor below. Keep your feet and legs together. Remain in this position for between 3 and 12 breaths before release.
To make the pose more active, you can come in and out of it frequently holding it for just a couple of full breaths and with just two breaths before repeating it. To keep the pose gentle, repeat 1-3 times with several deep full breaths between.
