Horse Stance

January 28, 2014

Horse Stance

In honor of the Year of the Horse, let’s review the horse stance. Stand with your legs wide apart, feet turned out at a diagonal, and bend your knees. Make sure your knees are tracking over your second toes. Hold your hands at your heart in prayer and keep your back straight and vertical. Keep your pelvis tucked under, making sure it is not sticking out behind you. If your hands are out at your side in ‘cactus’ position, then this pose is sometimes known as Moonflower or Goddess pose. Try lifting your toes, then set them down and lift your heels, alternating between them for a few breaths. This is a great grounding yoga pose.
