How to Do the Perfect Mountain Pose (Tadasana) - Complete Guide

Want to master Mountain Pose — the foundation of all standing yoga poses? You're in the right place.

Perfect Mountain Pose (Tadasana) Technique

Mountain Pose (Tadasana) is the foundational standing pose in yoga, creating the blueprint for proper alignment in all other standing poses. Despite its apparent simplicity, Tadasana builds strength, improves posture, and cultivates mindful awareness. ChAIron's AI coaching ensures perfect alignment and breath integration.

Step-by-Step Form Guide

  1. Feet Foundation:Stand with feet hip-width apart, toes pointing forward, weight evenly distributed across both feet
  2. Leg Engagement:Gently lift your kneecaps by engaging quadriceps, creating stability without locking knees
  3. Pelvic Alignment:Find neutral pelvis - not tilted forward or tucked under, tailbone lengthening toward floor
  4. Spine Extension:Lengthen through crown of head, shoulders relaxed away from ears, arms at sides
  5. Breath Integration:Breathe deeply and evenly, maintaining pose for 30 seconds to 1 minute
