Grounding with an easy pose is a great way to start the session, and allow both of you to connect spiritually and with your physical environment. The pose prepares the mind to begin the practice and also inspire to meditate for a complete practice.

Sit on the mat in crossed legged position, facing your partner with your hands on each other’s knees. Take a deep breath and look in your partner’s eyes and feel your surroundings. The busy life makes us forget the importance of truly valuing each other.

Tree Pose (Stand Together)

Tree pose is another basic asana and ideal to start your practice with. It is a balancing posture that requires a lot of centering, and to focus within to allow the body to be still. The pose inspires us to stand tall in the world by connecting to our roots, being grounded, and deepen the connection with your partner.

Stand beside your partner in tree pose, fold your left leg, and ask your partner to do the same with right leg. Let your side touch each other, bring your left and partner’s right hand back and hold. You can also bring hands in Anjali Mudra.

Take one hand and plate it on the opposite knee and with the other hand, try to reach the back of your partner. This way, you sync with the rhythm of your partner and ease each other.

Seated Cow/Cat Pose (Support each other)

Cat and Cow pose are two yoga poses that are often paired and practiced together. It provides an intense stretch to your hips, core, and back muscles. The pose is great for spine health, warm-up the body, and expands lung capacity.
