How to dynamise the legs in konasana

Conscious leg dynamics

In this position, you can develop a conscious dynamic in the legs. The centre of the movement is in the lumbar spine. By creating a flowing and soft movement approach from there, a dynamic is created in the legs. This consists of an interplay of sliding, flowing and contracting and gathering. This dynamic movement gradually builds up. The legs appear long and dynamic – and the same feeling is created.

This allows you to develop great and flowing strength in the wide stretch. This repetitive circular movement creates a flowing dynamic and strength. The stronger the leg dynamics are developed, the easier it is for the upper body to glide forwards.
