Kneeling Bend Knee Chair Supported
Kneeling tall with the hands on a chair seat, sit the hips back toward the heels as the knees bend deeper, then rise back to tall kneeling.
How to do it
Setup
Kneeling tall on a mat, a chair in front, both hands on its seat.
Steps
- Sit the hips back toward the heels, the hands staying on the seat.
- Stop at the deepest knee bend that stays comfortable.
- Rise back to tall kneeling.
Common mistakes
Dropping onto the heels: lower slowly; the chair takes some of the weight. Arching the lower back: tuck the pelvis as you sit back. Knees on a hard floor: kneel on a mat.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale up.
