The Hot Yoga Doctor – Free Bikram and Hot Yoga Resources › Hot Yoga Doctor Forum › Injuries, Restrictions, Ailments, Pose Modifications › Illnesses/Ailments › Flat Feet
I have been practicing hot yoga for almost one year. I have to say first that I love my studio! It is a donation based studio, so it makes it very east to practice there 3-4 times a week.
I have flat feet and so does my 17 year old son. We both are looking for what Bikram poses benefit flat feet the most. I have a feeling you will say Awkward pose is good, but that is my least favorite.
I just watched the free videos the other day and one of them addresses foot alignment and flat feet: https://www.hotyogadoctor.com/index.php/site/topics/resources/free-yoga-videos
It’s the third one down. Basically it’s something you can do in any of the standing poses.
Hi Patricia and Connie
Thanks Connie for doing my work for me! I am very grateful you chimed in.
Simply put, you need to put some awareness on how you use your feet whenever you’re using them so that you can engender correct use so that your posture, your back, your knees, hips and so on all benefit.
Namaste
Gabrielle 🙂
