Entering Revolved Triangle Pose

Step into a long stance and square the hips toward the front leg. Hinge forward over the front leg with a long spine. Place one hand to the floor or a block and rotate the chest open. Take a steady inhale to create length, then use the exhale to settle into the final shape.

Exiting Revolved Triangle Pose

Untwist the torso and lift back up with a long spine. Turn the feet to neutral before changing sides. Pause in a neutral position for a moment before continuing.
