Partner Yoga

Thinking of giving a second chance to your marriage or going through a rough phase in friendship, why do not try partner yoga? Partner yoga is a form of yoga that can be done with any partner, be it your friend or family member. It is also known as couples yoga. This form is the modern-day improvisation from the regular yoga class, which might eventually turn boring. It can be great fun if done correctly and works as a helping aid to each other. Partner yoga poses are the absolute way to reconnect the bond between your partners and feel the spark between you both.

Let us see the best couple of Yoga poses

Partner yoga poses

  1. Naukasana (boat pose)

Sit opposite each other with your knees bent and toes touching. Touch and hold your partner’s wrists. Lift your feet and bring your knees closer to your chest. Taking support from your partner’s wrist, move your chest up and straighten your back. Then, gently and slowly, lift your legs. Stay in the pose for a few breaths.

  1. Hastapadasana (standing forward bend)

Start by standing straight with feet joined together and arms alongside your partner to align with one another. Balance your weight equally on both feet. Now, breathe in slowly and extend your arms over your head. Breathing out, bend forward and bend down towards the feet. Try keeping the legs and spines erect as much as possible; hands should rest on either side of the floor and sides of your partner.

  1. Tadasana (Mountain pose)

Tadasana is a typical standing yoga posture. Start by standing straight with your partner, feet together, and back in a straight position aligned with your partner’s back. Raise your arms and inhale while standing on your toes. Hold for a moment, then come back while exhaling slowly.

  1. Setu Bandhan asana (bridge pose)

Lie flat on your back and bend your knees to place your feet on the ground, separating your hips. Arms should rest along the body, with palms facing downwards. Inhale and try to lift your back off the floor. The chin should touch the chest without moving. Your shoulders, feet, and arms should support your weight. Your buttocks should be firm, and you should try to tighten them.

  1. Vrikshasana (Tree pose)

Stand next to each other, keeping a few feet apart. Bring your palms together. Shift weight onto your right foot, lift your left foot, and place its sole at the root of your right thigh. Your partner should hold the pose for a few breaths.
