Plow Pose

Halasana

Plow Pose is an inverted forward-fold shape where the legs move overhead while the shoulders and upper arms support the base. It asks for controlled entry and exit, and it works best when the back of the body lengthens without forcing the feet to the floor.

Person standing in Mountain Pose with arms by the sides and feet grounded evenly.

Mountain Pose

Tadasana

Mountain Pose is a simple standing shape that teaches how to organise your weight, legs, pelvis and spine with attention. It often looks easy from the outside, but small changes in the feet and ribs can make the whole pose feel steadier and lighter.

Marichi’s Pose C

Marichyasana III

Marichi's Pose C is a seated twist with one knee bent and the other leg extended. It asks for a steady base, an upright spine and a measured turn rather than a strong pull with the arms.
