==Initial practice notes==* If you find it difficult to hold your feet, use a yoga strap by looping it around the middle arch.* When you do this asana, you might let your tailbone arch towards the ceiling. But you have to make sure your tailbone is pressed to the floor. Only then, the hips flexibility will increase.<ref name="Initial practice notes"/> == References ==
