Getting into Janu Sirsasana B
From Janu Sirsasana A's leg position, tuck your right heel in against your perineum, sitting up slightly on top of the heel rather than beside it, then fold forward over your straight left leg as before.
Described on the right side. On the left, swap right for left throughout.
What a teacher would tell you
- Lift through the sternum before folding.
- Heel presses up.
- Fold evenly.
These are the corrections My Ashtanga speaks aloud while you hold the posture.
