Kneeling

Kneeling in various positions challenges our balance and engages our core and leg muscles. Different types of kneeling follow from easiest to hardest: short kneel (sitting on heels), tall kneel (toes and knees on floor with bottom not resting on heels), half kneel (start in tall kneel and bring one foot up and place it in front of you).
