Supported Triangle Pose (Trikonasana)

At the wall, using chair.

Set up for the pose by placing your mat next to a wall, with a chair on your mat, and the back of the chair against the wall.

Extend your right leg out to the side as best you can, with your foot turned out 90 degrees.

Then step your left leg out to the left side with the foot turned slightly in.

Lengthen the right side of your torso, bend from the right hip, and place your right hand on the seat of the chair.

Lengthen your left arm straight up. If this is not possible, place your hand on your hip, as shown.

Allow your rib cage to rotate toward the ceiling.

To come out of the pose, reverse your steps. Repeat the pose on the other side.
