Yoga, Forward Bend Standing Posture (large print)

Synopsis

This image can only give an insight into what yoga is. It cannot be used alone as a training / user guide. The posture is only one from hundreds of possibilities and cannot be used in isolation. Yoga must be taught with breathing exercises and sequencing of postures. Each posture involves a timed procedure of movement, breathing and focused thought, not a static exercise position. There are two images of a standing woman seen from the side, separated by a dashed line on the page. There is a locator dot shown which will be in the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The image on the left of the page is the full standing, forward bend posture. Only one leg and arm are shown. She wears a vest and leggings. The woman's lower body faces to the right and her upper body faces to the left. Her bottom is to the top left and her feet to the bottom of the page. Her upper body is sharply bent at the hips towards the floor. Her arms also stretch down towards the floor. Her legs are straight as she grasps her toes and looks left to just below her knees. Her hair is tied up in a bun. The image on the right of the page is the easy or beginner's standing, forward bend posture. She also wears a vest and leggings. Only one leg and arm are shown. Her bottom is to the top left and her feet to the bottom of the page. Her upper body bent at the hips, goes diagonally down and right. Her arms stretch out at a right angle diagonally down and left. She grasps her ankles and looks at her hands. Her legs to the left are bent slightly at the knee. Her hair is tied up in a bun.
