Yoga is a journey of growth, self-discovery, and balance. These 4 photos illustrate variations of supported Trikonasana (Triangle-3 corners posture), showcasing how we can embrace challenges while still using support to deepen our connection and experience.
Increasing reach, positive attitude and joy
Each variation offers a unique opportunity to explore your body's alignment, flexibility, and strength—whether you're new to yoga or seeking to refine your practice.
