Tittibhasana Yoga Pose

Begin this pose by moving from a standing position into a

wide-legged squat, hands in Anjali Mudra (prayer position)

Engage your upper thighs as you press the hips up and back, lifting slightly

Bring your arms back down through the center line of your body, cupping your hands

 so that the fingers and thumbs are separate, creating a space for the back of your heels 

Cup the back of your heels, thumbs wrap around the 

inside of heel and fingers around the outside of heel

With hands and feet both firmly planted into the mat, press up through your sit 

bones, lifting to create space to gently tuck the upper arms back under the legs

Slowly sit back down, not as far as a squat, just enough to 

gently allow your arms to support the weight of your legs 

Engage your triceps and core as you begin to lift the feet off the mat

Once the feet are lifted and you feel balanced, focus on using the strength of your

arms and core to lift the sit bones back, preventing the buttocks from dropping down

Sit bones rise up and back and the arms become 

the center line of where your weight is balanced
