Join Hillary for a tutorial on how to do "Saddle Pose" and "Fixed Firm" pose (Supta Virasana).
Saddle Pose is a Yin yoga pose targetting mostly the front of the thighs, as well as the hip flexors and abdominals. It also gives some gentle compression to the lower back. The quads and hip flexors are rarely stretched in our daily lives and can quite often be stiff and short. So for many of us, spending any time in Saddle pose can be pretty intense.
Please be mindful of your knees when doing either variation of this pose, and always listen to your body.
