Pose Poll Results (!!)

So. Much. Fun. I love polls! Thanks to everyone who participated in my pose poll this past week.

Here are the results!

Favorite Seated Hip Opener:
#1. Pigeon- 80%
#2. Frog- 12%

Woohooo!!!!! I totally agree. Pigeon is my favorite pose of all time.

---

Favorite Balancing Pose:
#1. Half Moon- 41.7%
#2. Dancer- 25%

Again, I agree with the consensus! When you find your balance in this pose, it feels like you're flying :)

---

Favorite Inversion:
#1. Headstand- 41.7% (Asana of the month at Tranquil Space right now!)
#2. Legs up the wall- 20.8%

I'm not surprised by headstand in #1, but LOVE it that legs up the wall is #2. Yay for restorative poses and for allowing yourself to RELAX!

---

Favorite Standing Pose: closest race!
#1. Triangle- 38.5%
#2. Warrior 2- 34.6%

Both open-hipped poses...interesting. I wonder if this has something to do with the majority of my readers being women?

---

Favorite Arm Balance:
#1. Crow- 43.5%
#2. Side Crow- 17.4%

This makes sense, since crow is one of the most accessible arm balances (especially for female bodies).

What do you think? Are you surprised by any of the results?

Thanks again for reading and for indulging me by participating! I'll try to weave some of these favorite poses into my upcoming classes soon... :)

Namaste!
