- Muscular Energy: Tricks I like to use to engage legs are spreading my toes, that will get the calf's, front of the shin, and the feet to engage. Drawing the knee caps up toward to the hips, this will engage the quadriceps, and pushing into the feet and isometrically drawing the feet toward the mid line, the will engage the adductors. Its important get have strong muscular energy in the legs for steadiness and when we start rotating the legs we want it to effect the bones and if the muscles are not engaged it wont translate and affect the other bones.
- Expanding Spiral: pushing the feet into the floor draw your heels isometrically laterally and feel the spiral of energy that wraps around the legs and draws the inner heals, inner knees and inner thighs in back and wide.
- Organic Energy: from you pelvis scope your tail bone and pull your floating ribs down as you extend from your hips down through your feet. If one foot is lifted like in tree pose or ardha chandrasana you extend from the hips FIRST down into the standing foot and then from your hips through the lifted foot. After extending out through the legs you extend the torso up toward the sky.
