How to do the Triangle Pose

1. Stand with your feet wide apart, front toes pointing forward and back foot turned slightly in.
2. Straighten both legs and extend your arms out at shoulder height.
3. Reach forward over your front leg, then lower your front hand to your shin, ankle, or a block.
4. Extend your top arm toward the ceiling and open your chest to the side.

Tips

• Lengthen both sides of your waist rather than collapsing toward the floor.

Adjustments

• Rest your lower hand higher on your leg or on a block, and keep a micro-bend in the front knee.
