Stay on Your Toes

Most recognizable as being part of the Bikram sequence, tip toe pose requires balance, flexibility, and strength. The full pose asks for a lotus, so I am also giving step-by-steps for the half ankle to knee variation, should lotus be too much for your knees. As with all yoga poses, give this one time and be patient. If you keep coming back to it, it will come to you when your body is ready.
