tree - are you 6 ft tall or actually 5' 11''

all balancing poses have a trick to maintain your balance.

for tree (vrksasana) - the resistance between your foot & your thigh (or calf) helps maintain the stability for you to stand as tall as possible. ***never place your foot by your knee unless you love pain and want to get a knee replacement

once you have stability - stand as tall as you can, like you're getting your height measured at a doctor's office. ever inch counts b/c size matters 🌝

💡 Priorities:

1/ balance - strong standing leg + core

2/ hip external rotation + abduction

3/ chest / lats depending on variation

🌱 Poses / drills:

1/ half lotus or janushirshasana depending if you need more external rotation help or abduction

2/ happy baby & half happy baby to even out your legs
