Level 6 of the Lotus Sequence is the first of the advanced classes, it moves at a faster pace and focuses on the importance of the standing twisted triangle. This posture requires many elements including balance, concentration, strength and relaxed effort in the body. The seated postures continue to open the shoulders, legs, back and hips but also focus on the importance of developing strength in your core. Then finishing off with back bends, shoulder stand and resting meditation.

A 'yoga block' can be a great assist in the standing twisted triangle, as being able to support yourself with the bottom hand on the ground is key to opening and relaxing into this shape. Working to achieve this posture will also help you in the more advanced seated postures to come.
