Getting into Baddha Konasana B
From the upright position, nudge your feet out a few inches if they are tucked in close, then exhale and fold forward from your hips, going only as far as you can while keeping your spine long and straight, rather than rounding your back to get lower.
What a teacher would tell you
- Heels drawing in.
- Fold from the hips.
- Knees releasing toward the floor.
These are the corrections My Ashtanga speaks aloud while you hold the posture.
