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. Remember, support isn't about limitation; it's a tool for greater exploration and transformation. Let these poses remind you that your practice can evolve at your own pace, with intentionality and care.
