How to Do Seated Twist Yoga Pose | Ardha Matsyendrasana Pose Tutorial With Marysia Do
In this video, you'll learn how to do seated twist yoga pose. I am accompanied by Jackie to show and demonstrate how to properly execute this twisting yoga pose. The seated twist is a restorative yoga pose that is often performed towards the end of a yoga sequence because it is both relaxing and invigorating. It is also called Ardha Matsyendrasana, or the Half Lord of the Fishes pose. This pose promotes good digestion, encourages spinal mobility, and can help relieve lower back pain.
