Hands-to-Feet Pose
What is Hands-to-Feet Pose?
Hands-to-Feet Pose immediately follows Half Moon Pose in the Bikram Yoga sequence. This posture primarily stretches the spine, the back of the legs and the hip flexors. The pose serves as a great full-body exercise, and it can also help reduce lower back pain.
