Padmasana (Lotus Pose) is one of the most coveted yet tricky asanas in yoga. For many, it becomes a major stumbling block because, if approached incorrectly, it can cause serious injury to the knees and ankles.

In this video lesson, Vyacheslav Gutsalyuk reveals an original method for mastering the lotus pose based on a deep understanding of biomechanics. The core principle is simple yet fundamental: the lotus is formed exclusively through rotation in the hip joint. We do not "force" the knees; instead, we work on the mobility of the hip joint capsule.

What the lesson includes:

• A Comprehensive Approach: Working on hip external rotation in four planes — standing, sitting, lying on the back, and lying on the stomach.
• Injury Prevention: A detailed breakdown of common mistakes and mobility angles. You will learn how to align the foot and knee to eliminate harmful tension.
• Tissue Preparation: Dynamic warm-ups, focusing on lymph flow and circulation to release both physical and psycho-emotional blocks.
• Effective Leverage: Using your own body weight and hands for gentle yet deep stretching without the need for special equipment.

This methodology is proven by the instructor's years of experience. With regular practice and in the absence of serious pathologies, even those with significant stiffness can safely master the lotus pose within 3 to 6 months. This lesson will help you not just "get into the shape," but build a stable and mindful personal experience that you can eventually share with others.
