Yoga: How to do the Chair Pose (Utkatasana)

The Chair Pose is very interesting yoga pose. I also learnt this in Pilates class as well. First stand upright and firmly on both feet. Next lower your buttocks down as if you are going to see on a low chair. You should bend lower enough to be able to place both hands on the floor. Once you are able to touch the floor, look up and stretch your arms upwards while stilling on the low imaginary chair. Hold this pose for about 10 to 20 seconds. You will feel a burning sensation on your buttock area. This pose is set to give you a well toned and nice butt.
Each week, I’ll try to update my yoga and pilates journal on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, same time, same place. If you’d like to read the previous blogs on this topic, just click on the link that says My Yoga and Pilates Journal.
