Utthan(n.) = raise or rise
(antonym)Patan (n.) = fall
Pada = foot, leg
Asana = posture
Here is a different looking Utthanapadasana that I see in the Ashtanga discipline being practiced.
Breathing: deep and slow. In all asanas the inhale and exhale techniques are the same. When lying - raising legs will warranat inhale, putting them down will call for exhale.
Comments: I thought I would show for every asana - how the beginners ought to approach them. Though for Marakatasana published earlier, I passingly mentioned how a beginner could approach it, I thought Utthanpadasana could be the first one where I could use the yoga strap to practise the same.
focus: On your back. Align it well with the ground, so the back feels good.
