Mountain Pose (Tadasana)A foundational pose that improves posture and balance. Stand tall with feet together, shoulders relaxed, and arms at your sides. Focus on grounding through your feet and engaging your core.
Downward Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana)A full-body stretch that strengthens arms, legs, and shoulders while improving flexibility. Start on hands and knees, lift your hips, and form an inverted V shape. Keep your spine long and heels reaching toward the mat.
Child’s Pose (Balasana)A restful pose perfect for stretching the back and relaxing the mind. Kneel on your mat, bring your big toes together, sit back on your heels, and extend your arms forward, forehead resting on the mat.
Warrior II (Virabhadrasana II)Builds strength in legs and core while improving focus. Step one foot back, bend your front knee, extend arms parallel to the floor, and gaze over your front hand.
