Paschimottanasana

A tutorial video going through how to approach this Ashtanga yoga position with good technique. This pose invites you to have active feet, draw ankle bones together and engage your thighs with support from the root lock, Mula Bandha.

PS. We do not want to go into a forward fold without support for the back. We invite you to go through this and other techniques regularly as not to get stuck in negative habits.

This video belongs to the series Ashtanga Yoga Essentials. Take part of the introduction series Ashtanga Yoga Foundations. To deepen your practice further, take part of Ashtanga Yoga Progression.
