The Bikram Posture Awkward:

• Strengthens and firms all the muscles of thighs calves and hips. Makes hip joints more flexible
• Firms Upper arms
• Increases circulation to knee and ankle joints
• Relieves arthritis and rheumatism. Helps with slipped disc and lumbago of the lower spine
• Requires laser like concentration
• Focus on your core
• Calls for great stamina and focus

Part 1

Work from the base up. Sit down feet flat first, then lift upper body back, looking a few inches above your head in the mirror

Part 2

• Sit down with back straight
• Sit down on top of toes.
• Steady body, and bring the chin up, pushing into the toes helps
• (DON’T turn your head – Look straight in front)

Part 3

• Keep your hips above your heels: not a static posture
• You are strengthening your adductor muscles and engaging your core,
• Keep the spine always straight.

Throughout always keep your arms straight and 6 inches apart- mindfully strong- fingers together
