Triang Mukha Ekapada Pashimottanasana can be challenging, especially for students who are fairly new to class.

This posture involves bending the knee and placing the front of the shin on the floor by the side of the body. It's common for this to present problems for the ankle and knee but these problems can easily be addressed with a few adjustments and a little know-how.

In the video below I share some ideas that I commonly use with students in class to help them find comfort, ease and the confidence to work effectively with this posture.
