Phalakasana (Plank Pose)
Description

 

  • From Ardha Uttanasana, step back to Phalakasana (Plank Pose).
  • With your shoulders above your wrists, firm legs, heels pressing back, soft buttocks, inner thighs slightly rotating up, tail bone and public bone drawing slightly back, belly lightly engaged to support the middle, shoulder blades drawing down the back with lower tips drawing lightly into against the back ribs, sternum extending forward, back of the neck long (or looking slightly forward if okay with the neck), cultivate a sense of steadiness, roots and extension.
  • Try to bring all of these qualities into Chataranga Dandasana.
