Mountain Pose

Tadasana is usually the starting position for all the standing poses. Tadasana or Mountain pose is named so because it promotes the experience of stillness, strength, relaxed power, and immovable stability associated with mountains.

Even though it's often a starting pose, it's useful to practice Tadasana as a pose in itself. Stay in the pose for 30 seconds to 1 minute, breathing easily.

Benefits: Mountain Pose is the foundation for all  other poses. It aligns the body, teaches correct standing, increases awareness, develops  balance and steadies the breath.
