Day 17 of our 30 day yoga challenge with Sarah Malcolm focuses on a pose that lengthens the entire body and builds balance – the chair pose.

Welcome to day 17 of Healthista’s 30 Day Yoga Challenge, with leading London yoga teacher, Sarah Malcolm (@sarahmalcs), where you learn in detail a different pose or aspect of yoga every day.

If you’re just joining us, click here to go to day one and see below for links to the other days in the series.

Chair Pose

Today’s in-depth pose is called Utkatasana, or the Chair Pose. This pose strengthens the shoulders, back and legs as you squat down in a seated position with your arms extended in the air.

Also called the Fierce Pose or the Awkward Pose, this move is excellent for lengthening the body.

Check back in tomorrow for the next move in our yoga challenge video series.

Our 30 day yoga challenge

Each day you will be learning a new aspect to the practice, so in a month you will have learned the basic yoga poses in depth and participate in classes or do a proper sequence yourself.

Shockingly to most people, yoga is a meditation that anyone can do. You don’t need a specific body type to master the practice, you just need the right skills – and you don’t need to be bendy! Our 30 day challenge will give you the skills to become a true yogi.
