Learn how to do Child’s Pose, known in Sanskrit as Balasana, in this 3-minute video tutorial with YinWave founder Chris Abay.

Child’s Pose is a kneeling resting posture often used in Hatha yoga, Vinyasa flow and gentle yoga. It creates an opportunity to slow down, reconnect with your breathing and explore a gentle stretch through your back and hips.

Discover how to approach Balasana comfortably, allowing space for your breath without forcing your hips towards your heels. Support beneath your forehead or body can help you adapt the posture to your needs.

Suitable for beginners learning Child’s Pose and practitioners refreshing their technique, this short tutorial can support your home yoga practice or help you find a restful pause between movements.
