TOLASANA | SCALE POSE

Tolasana strengthens your wrists, arms & abs as you place your hands besides your hips and lift yourself off the floor from lotus pose. Can't pretzel your legs into lotus? No problem - you can do this pose in half-lotus or an easy crossed legged position. You can work on lifting one foot off the floor first, and then try to lift off both. Blocks are your best friend in this pose as it gives you more length in your arms to lift up off the floor. Make sure to do this at least twice to keep it even and switch the cross of your legs.
