Vrikshasana. Tree Pose. Yogini. Greek goddess, classical artistic yoga on wet marble

MP4

Standing on one leg, the other foot presses against the inner thigh or calf, hands joining at the heart or rising overhead. Root through the standing foot and lengthen the spine. Soften the gaze on a fixed point.

Muscles: gluteus medius, vastus medialis, intrinsic foot muscles, erector spinae.
Tree Pose improves balance and centers the mind, growing invisible roots downward even as the arms reach toward light.
