Child’s Pose (Balasana)

In this breakdown, TNFT trainers Ritvik, Kathy, MB, and Dan guide you through different ways to experience Child’s Pose—from traditional knees-together alignment to wide-knee variations and restorative props. There’s no one “right” way—just the version that feels right for you.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to modify Child’s Pose with knees together or wide for comfort and space

  • Arm placement options: extended for active rest or by your sides for full surrender

  • How to soften the shoulders and let go of tension

  • Use of props like a ball for a deeper shoulder release
