Double Pigeon Pose
Expert Advice
Ensure that your hips are square and both sit bones are in contact with the floor to avoid putting unnecessary strain on your knees.
How-to-do Steps
- Sit on the floor with your legs extended in front of you.
- Bend your left knee and place your left ankle on top of your right knee.
- Bend your right knee and slide your right shin under your left shin.
- Adjust your position so that your shins are stacked with each foot flexed.
- Maintain an upright posture, and if you feel comfortable, lean forward to deepen the stretch.
- Hold the pose for several breaths, then switch sides.
