So to position the feet as our foundation, always want to start with the feet in the
Standing Poses. From foundations build strong houses so you want your feet to be about the
length of one of your legs spaced apart so you can always use a Yoga tie in the beginning
or bathrobe belt or a regular belt or a necktie to measure the length from the outside of
your, of the outside of your leg from your outer foot up to your hip. Place that on your
Yoga mat to determine the width between your feet and then you want to make sure that your
feet are what we call parallel to each other. You can often use the second toes to determine
that- make the second toes parallel to each other and press firmly down into your feet
to begin creating a firm foundation for your standing posture, in this case, Virasana 1,
Hero 1. After awhile you'll be able to tell the distance apart that you need your feet
to be, but in the beginning, this is a good tool.
