Baddhakonasana, or Bound Angle Pose

Can you see how this pose could be easy for some and yet so challenging for others? Try it and see how it lands for you. Baddha Konasana or Bound Angle is one of those deceptively simple actions that simultaneously strengthens and soothes the back. In the #techage, it is mission critical because it opens all your collapsed places.

I am so glad to have included this in the challenge because it’s the oldest pose recorded and there’s a poetry to its inclusion in any class or sequence today. Don’t be shy to do it on lots of support!

BY the way, thank you @bethwalker_echobeauty for being so beautiful during my shoot and for spritzing my face with amazing-smelling things and for brushing my hair after headstand. She and @cdo.photo and @tashaeich and Rachel and Mandy were so much fun to work with.
