Power Starts at Feet

In yoga, every pose begins from the ground up — and nowhere is this more evident than in Tāḍāsana (Mountain Pose), the “foundation āsana.”

🔸 Feet as Your Foundation:
Your feet are your roots. In Tāḍāsana, the part of the body that connects to the floor is the foundation.
When you stand, aim for maximum contact of your soles with the mat.

🔸 How to Establish a Steady Base:
1️⃣ Balance the Weight: Evenly distribute weight between right & left foot, inner & outer edges, front & back.

2️⃣ Press Down Firmly: Press the feet down to awaken your legs—watch your kneecaps lift as the thighs engage.
3️⃣ Specific Foot Actions: Lift all 10 toes, spread them wide, then place them back down creating visible space between them.
4️⃣ Leg Engagement: As you press the feet down, move the upper leg (knee to hip) back to activate support and stability.

🔸 Why the Foot’s Structure Matters:
Think of your foot like a dome—the arch distributes weight from heel to toe mounds. Standing correctly allows this arch to function; when it collapses, weight and alignment are thrown off.
What you learn in Tāḍāsana translates directly into other standing poses, like Vīrabhadrāsana II, making your entire practice stronger and safer.
When you master your foundation, you build steadiness, confidence, and alignment for every pose to come.
