Yoga standing on one leg is always unstable? Starting the arch is the key!

Yoga is not on the way to yoga, or on the way to yoga.

Focus on yoga class.

When you start to do one leg standing balance posture, students begin to be restless.

Breathing began to become rapid, shaking his ankles left and right, trying to find balance, and his toes unconsciously grabbed the ground.

How can you gracefully maintain one leg balance posture? In addition to starting the core, a key point we want to share today is to evenly distribute the weight on our feet.

So, how should the weight of the body be distributed on the feet? Let’s take a look at the anatomy of the sole of the foot.

There are three arches on the sole of the foot, not one! They are: medial longitudinal arch, lateral longitudinal arch and transverse arch.

These three arches play an important role: foot flexibility, cushioning and shock absorption function and distribution of body weight.

To practice yoga, you need to understand the structure and function of these three arches.

1 The medial longitudinal arch is on the inside of the foot, the line from the big toe to the arch of the foot.

This arch doesn’t touch the ground and plays an important role when the body is bearing weight.

From the outside of the heel to the outside of the heel.

This arch can touch the ground and give the body a push.

3.

Transverse arch this arch is the connecting line between the inside and outside of the forefoot, a point below the foot ball.

In standing pose, keep 3 arches activated.

When these arches are activated rather than collapsed, the arches become strong and the pose becomes stable.

How do I activate the arch? Put a paper towel on the ground, try to grab the paper towel with five toes, and then release the five toes as far as possible.

Repeat for 20-30 times with each foot.

Put one end of the yoga belt into the big toe, and lift the heel at the other end to step on the ground.

Feel that after the arch is relaxed, lift each foot and repeat for 20-30 times.

The importance of the arch in yoga practice is self-evident, affecting the overall balance of the foot, leg, waist, spine and cervical spine.

Build your arch and get twice the result with half the effort.
