Legs Raised

Uttana Pada

Reclining

How to

One partner lies back with legs raised, resting on or near the other's shoulders, who kneels close in front.

Benefits

  • A different depth and angle than legs-down positions
  • Frees the raised partner's hands for touch
  • Easy to adjust how high the legs rest

Practice

Hamstring flexibility varies a lot — don't force a high angle, a slight lift is enough to feel the difference.
