This Week In Nithya Priyan School Of Yoga: Lotus

This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, we’re working on one of yoga’s quintessential poses - Lotus. Getting the legs in lotus pose safely requires not only flexibility, but an acute understanding of the strength and activation in the outer hip.The external rotation of the hip should be combined with the activation of the outer hip in order to keep the hips stable and the knees protected. Join us all week as we explore lotus legs in various poses through our Basic, Essential and Intermediate classes.
